I came out as ‘advocate’ but reading through it isn’t me. I wouldn’t try to calm down a tyrant! I would shoot him.

I'm a defender apparently. Quite a lot of it was true though and apparently The Queen is one so I'm in good company.

It's Myers Briggs isn't it?
Complete load of nonsense but I'm a INTP/Logician

It's Myers Briggs isn't it? Looks like it. I'm deeply suspicious of anything that reduces a wealth of real-world data to a few simple numbers. I feel the same way about IQ tests. I was INTP-T (Logician). Some parts were accurate. Some weren't. "Though Logicians may scoff at the notion, they actually function best when paired with another person." Absolutely not, in my case. I simply can't function at all when there's someone else watching me work. |

INTJ.
I would say it is 80 percent accurate, but the descriptions on that page are not as good as some other sites.
It is meant to be more a 'base' personality that doesn't factor in life experience and how that alters us, so there are always going to be discrepancies.
I am EXTREMELY empathetic, which has probably come out of my upbringing and I am not even remotely vengeful (when I am done with you that's it, you no longer exist, but I don't want to destroy you) but everything else is pretty much spot on.

I simply can't function at all when there's someone else watching me work. I have C-PTSD which over rides my base personality and alters certain aspects of it. It also depends on the situation. I can and do work better alone, but my chosen career path means that I don't have a say in that and I have to work with others, so I have to alter my personality to be able to do that which I find very uncomfortable. |

INFP - Mediator. Much of it rings true, especially the creative bit and management style. The picture makes me e look like a hippy flower-child, though, and those days are long gone.....
EDIT: Just noticed there’s been a lot on IN types so far (mine is INFP).

I'm an IN as well, I find it pretty accurate.

I'm a Defender (ISFJ-T), and it pretty much sums me up entirely.

I got Architect. Most of the traits fit me but the results don't, as in people with the personality are supposed to have very successful careers & I don't really have a career at all, just temp jobs. The test probably doesn't take into account having Asperger's.

Pretty accurate. I was an ISTJ when work paid for the official Myers-Briggs and the same through this one.

Advocate. And while I don't agree with everything, it's describing me more accurately than I expected.

Defender, IFSJ - A. Pretty accurate. I remember doing a course years ago at work and I was the only one who came out the same at work as at home. Apparently most of us are different people in and out of work. I must be a robot I think!

Adventurer/ISFP.
Somewhat accurate. It's right about me being shy and introverted, prefering to be left alone to do my own thing, taking a long time to open up to people, quite easily stressed. I'm not creative though (I did like drawing until I did GCSE Art) and I think they describe someone much more assertive. And I doubt anyone would call me charming.

ENFP-T, campaigner. So entirely wrong... And I was being honest.

I'm an Advocate/INFJ-T. And clearly I really am, because I remember doing this test a while ago, and getting the exact same result. It's actually quite scarily accurate on some things. If anyone really enjoys these tests, here's another one I thought was good: projects.fivethirtyeight.com/personality-quiz/ |

I got INFJ-A / INFJ-T Advocate too. Which I think is probably a little flattering! Although evidently this is true, given my other posts in the trans issue thread.
