I N T P
Posted by Z_Blogz
Thats what i apparently am, an INTP according to a personality test conducted at work, they have concluded that my personality code is INTP. Which was quite bizarre and funny in many ways. Like the way they conducted this test was ask me a series of questions and i answer as honestly as i can without thinkin too much and avoiding neutral ground as much as possible. Then they try 2 validate them by making me answer more direct questions about how i felt wat my personality is. Like there was a series of four questions each with two choices and i pick one that i feel corresponds to my personality and beliefs. Funnily enough i ended up picking exactly wat the personality test showed.
Here are the four questions and the two choices
