The test gave me the ENFP result, but the INTP[^] article is the one I find that describes me the best.
I wonder if I know myself better than the test. To me though, I am a perfect match on INTP and with traits common to ENFP.
But some traits of ISTP[^] also appeal to me (I love activities that challenge my fear of heights and that involves risk (like sky diving and racing).
So, it's kind of hard to define who I really am.

Sometimes it's hard to distinguish between who you think you are (or want to be), and who you actually are. There were a few questions in the test that I almost answered one way because I was thinking of how I wanted to be, but then I changed my answer to better correlate with how I actually behave.
It's very hard to think about yourself objectively. In fact, I would say it is nigh impossible.

Yeah, I found myself in that situation in several questions and a few I couldn't actually determine what would be my reaction unless it actually happened.

Yep, I think so as well.

I've been very interested in the T/F dimension of this assessment. When I first took it over 25 years ago, I was strongly on the "T" side of things. Over time, the needle has been moving towards Feeling. When I took this test yesterday, I was 1% thinking... essentially a wash. I believe that it reflects not a refusal to think, but an added capacity to feel. When you're making a decision that involves others, you consider not only the cold hard facts, but also trust your gut feelings and consider the feeling of others.
I think it reflects admirable traits, Fabio.

My result: INTJ.
Curiosity: According to Wikipedia[^], INTJs are one of the rarest of the sixteen personality types, and account for about 1–4% of the population.
It's funny that it's the most voted option on this survey

That's interesting..Maybe that's what most of the programmers aspire to and that is reflecting in the votes..or maybe its not so rare among developers..

But I prefer to say that I am PIST.

ENTJ
Extravert(11%) iNtuitive(50%) Thinking(62%) Judging(78%)
•You have slight preference of Extraversion over Introversion (11%)
•You have moderate preference of Intuition over Sensing (50%)
•You have distinctive preference of Thinking over Feeling (62%)
•You have strong preference of Judging over Perceiving (78%)
This test is a joke. Many of the questions are asked wrong. I do not prefer a lot of things. I choose out of necessity and lack of other options.

That's kind of the point, you're not supposed to think about and analyse the questions or answer, you're supposed to go with whichever is most right, even if you think neither or both are right.

scored an ENTJ as well.
found it funny they could score someone in this area because like you I was constantly analyzing and questioning. some of the questions seemed almost identical at times leading me to wonder if the test was rigged somehow.
I think these are all supposed to be traits of an ENTJ.

I've taken it before and found them mostly the same. Hey, as long as they think we're leaders, who are we to complain. Time to apply as CEO somewhere.

I feel unclean - like I went to an astrologer or other charlatan.
The description is typical of the genre: Such and such, but for some etc. - designed to find enough hits in anyone to make it seem plausible.
Not saying the resultant "type" made be unhappy - just realized I wasted my time in an unsavory manor.
