This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand. Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense.
This is why I must hate people.

Congrats on a 3.4 with classes like pre-calc in college. Your parents must be proud. What do you have a B in...fingerpainting? Maybe sheepherding. Remember, baaa means no.
I got an A in econ calc, I'm taking an 18 week online class in 6 so I can get out earlier, now if you want to cram a 5 unit class in 6 weeks, work a job, and attempt to have some sort of summer so I don't go crazy working, then be my guest. But I have a funny feeling you might need a heep of meth to keep it up......

Myers-Briggs makes me want to slam a meat cleaver into someone's skull. What does that make me?

Seriously, the test just makes me angry. The questions are unanswerable without context, and it's all gaming-the-game navel-gazing horse****.

(ENTP or INTP depending on my mood, according to these stupid ****ing tests my employer's forced me to take...)

I had to take a formal Meyers-Brigg test since I'm a chief resident this year (and the next, although I'll offload many of the headaches to the junior chief next year).

I'm still an INTJ, although less of an I, T, and J than I'd have expected.

The bunker at parliament
Tested INTJ on the first linky with a 33 75 25 22

And on the last link, that test I was a ISTJ?

So many questions were 50/50, pick either option depending on my mood or the context of what was going on the last time came across that situation.

:rofl: And as far as the high school tests some here are gloating about.... I was teh stupido at school.
They asked me to leave..... "We don't think your suited to school David, we think it would be best if you took this opportunity to enter the workforce"
My fave all time report card had for the English grade and comment
"D, it would have been an F but his reading level is too high".

Funny thing is after failing English every year at school, I ended up setting up and running several successful publications for the the Fairfax media empire. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

I work as a Risk Manager at a non-bank financial company. I like that.
Somehow I have people reporting into me as well. Not so fond of that.

I've also worked the opposite side of the desk in sales with a bank, was ok as long as I was dealing with sophisticated borrowers, hated the schmoozing, rather structure credits than golf with clients.
