I'm the only person I know who can fail personality tests. You see, for College Orientation, we had to take a Keirsey personality test. You know the type, where you mark down your answers to questions, then judging by the number of times you answered "a" or "b" you fell into different categories. Well, there were 20 questions for each one: Extrovert (E) vs. Introvert (I); Sensational (S) vs. Intuititive (N); Thinking (T) vs. Feeling (F); and Judging (J) vs. Perceiving (P). I was told to put X if I came out even in my 'a' or 'b' answers for categories. So while most people in the class were ESTP or INFJ or some such combination, I came out as IXTX (and for the 'T' vs. 'F' category, if I'd answered two questions differently, I would be IXXX). So the only thing that I learned from this test is that I am definitely an introvert (every single 'E' vs. 'I' question came out as 'I' for me.)
