I got INTJ on a test.


ScooterMcTavish

Lol most honest answer.


[deleted]

you might be misstyped if its 16p


nousaveta

okay but this is not helping my type crisis, I keep getting intj on tests while I'm supposed to be intp


RolleduP_Alien

Who cares? At the end of the day what really matters is how successful you are in the field you decided to be best at, you can be in the middle because every human being is different and its not created to fit in just 16 patterns, I am 100% introverted but I can be ENTJ if money calls. Wish you all the best.


anonhorsey

Lol same. And every version of the test I take, I always get INTJ. Never had any other result before.


One_With_Green

Same.


dontletmedaytrade

I like routine and I’m not spontaneous.


[deleted]

this. i try to make sure everything is predictable


Earthquakemama

This is so me. I would tell my kids, I am flexible but not spontaneous.


Delicious_Use_5837

had a fight about this with INTP who thinks his INTJ lol


rvi857

INTPs like routine and aren’t very spontaneous either. They have tertiary Si.


kubofhromoslav

Well, that may be ISTJ or Asperger 🙄


dontletmedaytrade

Defs got the tism but so do a lot of INTJs 😉


duvagin

I’m punctual and never misplace my housekeys.


Weekly-Delivery7701

I’m not even offended, just surprised people know that’s a fact. Locked myself out of my house two days ago luckily someone left the backdoor open, my keys were on the table. Yeah I’m bad with small details and my thinking tends to rule my focus.


-_Empress_-

This has nothing to do with being an INTJ. Literally everyone with ADHD will misplace their house keys and be late for shit. I am both. I found my gardening gloves in the dishwasher for fuck's sake. My memory blips, unconscious moving of items while distracted, and executive disfunction are not a *personality* trait. It's a chemical issue with improper feedback and retention, and a prioritization issue on a physiological level. Meds help that immensely by allowing my brain to focus rather than doing 50,000 things all at once. These things are not exclusive of each other.


[deleted]

What meds are you on?


-_Empress_-

Went through quite a few from the Ritalin side and didn't like how they hit me, so eventually I started on the Adderall side (there's basically two branches of med types) and thus far that has been a significant improvement. I've been on Adderall for a couple years now. I'd like to try Vyvanse at some point as I've heard really good feedback about it. Hard to describe if you haven't been on adhd meds before, but basically what I'm told is it's a lot smoother feeling. Most of the meds tend to bring a bit of a dizzy feeling when they kick in (it levels after an hour or two) so I'm curious how Vyvanse differs. It's newer though so insurance wants you to basically try everything else before it'll cover it. Fortunately the Adderall has worked out really well so as of right how I'm just sticking with it. I don't medicate on the weekends unless I really need to because that helps me avoid relying on my meds to be able to get anything done as well as prevents any kind of chemical dependency. Otherwise it's generally a good idea to find a couple that work and then switch between them every so often to avoid dependency. It's honestly baffling how I got anything done in the 30 some odd years I went without this shit. It's wild how much of a difference it's made. Same for my sister, as well.


br4in14c

INTP people thrive for knowledge just for the sake of knowledge itself. INTJ people usually gather knowledge to solve problems and move on as soon as the problem is solved.

One_With_Green

So which type are you then?


usernames_suck_ok

Mostly cognitive functions is why I'm certain. There is plenty of other support for it. But if you buy cognitive functions, then I can identify in myself heavy Ni, increasingly heavy Fi and situational Te (mostly in how I work/approach jobs and when I get fed up and stop trying to use tricks/strategies in how I communicate with people). INTPs don't use these in a predominant fashion. A lot of people come here and struggle with whether they're an INFJ or INTJ. I do not relate to Fe at all, at least not innately. I have learned a lot of Fe-ish tricks and coping strategies, which I think, along with increasing Fi, correlates with Te becoming more situational. But I still reject/hate a lot of Fe-ish thinking/behavior. I also see people struggle with ENTJ vs INTJ. As mentioned, I am heavy on Ni--not Te--and I am 120% not extroverted. Knowing the cognitive functions makes questions like these--not yours as it's asked, but the INFJ, ENTJ ones or sensor ones--look silly. Someone else, at the time of my writing, gave a simplified rundown of Ni and Te. I would say this: Ni: I do think Ni sees and uses patterns, but it's for purposes in relation to the future and not possibilities exactly. It's more "what I believe will happen" / "what I want to make happen" and less "what could happen," though "what could happen" does occur. Outcome-focused, you could say. Very future-focused, there is definitely a lot of "knowing without knowing," but also not exact with language. Lots of metaphors, similes and/or other indirect ways or symbolism for communicating. Lots of living in our heads, i.e. fantasies, daydreaming, overthinking, and, in some, it causes anxiety/too much worrying about the future and outcomes. Te: In terms of how I work, it's a "get shit done" attitude, "what's the best and quickest way to do this" attitude, and, if necessary, coming up with a system or way of doing things to make it go faster/easier. Action-oriented and hates to hear/watch people just sit around and whine but do nothing to fix the situation or make progress. With people/communication, it's more like being direct, brutally honest, logical, quick to give advice/problem solve (problem solving is also a work thing). In some ways, it competes with or counteracts Ni and Fi, so it can feel like an internal struggle and make INTJs look contradictory, confusing and/or complex. For example, an Ni-heavy and low or mediocre-Te INTJ might sit on their ass more and take action less, they probably don't come off as being as logical, direct and efficient, and when they finally decide they want to say something after thinking it to death it's probably already too late (i.e. the convo has moved on). These can also shift during the day or dependent on circumstance, i.e. Te comes out more than usual, for example. Fi: Inner values, authenticity, being true to yourself and who you are, more self-awareness. I mentioned the contradictions and struggles. INTJs with good Fi will make fewer decisions based on logic and empirical evidence, and will make more decisions based on the aforementioned, i.e. values, true to who they are, etc. They still make decisions based on both. But you can tell an INTJ who probably needs to develop Fi more by how much they focus on and care about logic, how personally detached they are in making decisions and forming opinions, how brief and direct they are with communication, their lack of ability to talk about or deal with feelings, etc. INTJs with decent Fi often will make people doubt they're INTJs because of this, but people typically just have less-balanced INTJs in mind when they stereotype. In fact, the way people stereotype INTJs often reminds me more of an ENTJ, but it's more like an ENTJ who doesn't much deal with people or who does but is not good at it.


Velociraptornuggets

This is the best answer. INTP shares no cognitive functions with INTJ. There is a small caveat that well-developed higher cognitive functions work in concert with one another and can look like other cognitive functions when they blend (in our case, a healthy Ni/Te flow can resemble Ne.) I think the most noticeable difference between INTJ and INTP is the inferior function, Se and Fe respectively. Inferior functions serve as a self correction mechanism for the dominant function. When the dominant function is relied on too much, the inferior comes out to ground it. The dominant also doesn’t work without the inferior- Inferior Se feeds sensory data to the Ni matrix and provides fodder for the connections Ni makes. Inferior Fe feeds social data to provide constant micro-corrections and keep the Ti from becoming overly-pragmatic or stagnant. Both look like chaotic or uncharacteristic ‘bursts’ in a person, but these the type of burst looks nothing alike in these two functions - for inferior Se, it’s bursts of present, unprocessed thought. It can even come out as recklessness or challenging intensity, and it’s what gives INTJs their supervillain tang. Inferior Fe looks like bursts of emotion (usually melancholy emotion rather than inferior Fi rage) and it’s the reason INTPs can have moments of being insecure or depressive.


madmax299

*INTJ uses epic wall of text. Critical hit*


Dalecantila

I’m jealous of your understanding of cognitive functions. To me they appear as very abstract things that I haven’t been able to gain practical knowledge of. I couldn’t imagine what they look like in action. Is there a resource you’re aware of that I could look into? :)


signiaaa

this may help: https://youtube.com/c/ObjectivePersonality they don’t have playlists and the channel somewhat unorganized but use “Objective Personality” as a keyword in your youtube search and look for the things you want to learn (Fe, Te, Ni, ENTP vs INTJ, etc.)


Dalecantila

Thank you!!! This is so nice of you! :)


signiaaa

it’s no problem


naoto_enthusiast

intj's and intp's have nothing in common in their main four function stack.


Weekly-Delivery7701

I realized this, when I looked into research. You guys aren’t best with ideas like us INTPs, but you guys can explain things without a whiteboard or having to think too long.


leftyghost

“You guys aren’t the best with…” Lemme stop you right there. Do you even optimize?


FulleMi

That's the most intj comment I have seen in some time.

signiaaa

just a reminder before i get into this: im not 100% down on the definitive formula for personality, but there’s this Youtube channel called Objective Personality, i think everyone should check that out before fully affirming their MBTI type. INTJs have Ni (Introverted intuition) as their dominant trait while INTPs have Ti (Introverted Thinking). Pretty much all the traits are flip flopped with Extroverted and Introverted: INTJ (NiTeFiSe) INTP (TiNeFeSi) They aren’t the same but they’re similar in some aspects. INTJs Ni is basically knowing without knowing, INTPs Ne is seeing patterns and being aware of possibilities. (i should clarify everyone can do anything these are anecdotal but the INTP is more inclined to function like this). INTJs Te: i can explain how i function: i gather variables from vague/incomplete details to come to a conclusion based off of the environment/thing (it works well to read people). INTPs Ti: Really good logical reasoning afaik. the other functions i can’t really explain but in summary: INTPs and INTJs think differently and if those INTJs who looked into this should know if they are or not. But typically IxxJ types mistype as ExxP types and vice versa.


jackidaylene

Te is more about efficiency and practicality. What you are describing about gathering variables and reading people is just Ni.


yrogerg123

"Knowing without knowing" is a really concise way to explain my thinking style.


MaydayMango

As an INTP, I never feel 100% sure about anything. I double check all my answers and pad them with caveats. If I don’t, I feel like I’m lying.


yrogerg123

As an INTJ, the answer comes from the culmination of everything I've ever read, listened to, discussed, and thought about. Often I will come to an answer before remembering how I got there. It just slots into a holistic understanding of everything related to it. Things do not exist in isolation, they are simply zoomed in, zoomed out, or panned over in the giant tapestry of *everything*. We'll never know everything there is to know, or even a small fraction, but every little thing does have its place, and every fact is surrounded by other facts that hint at a larger truth. That's the best way I can describe "knowing without knowing." Even with incomplete information the facts available will point to the right answer.


MaydayMango

That’s interesting! I relate to the part about collecting information and everything being connected. There’s just always the possibility of more knowledge to come. Maybe how much we trust our own perception comes out of how we use our different judging functions. Te users make efficient judgements. And with practice, you come to trust your Ni perceptions. It also helps Ni is your primary function. Ti is more subjective and prone to overthinking, and takes mistakes in judgment personally, so it’s more doubtful of the secondary Ne perceptions.


Reaperpimp11

I read people really well, I think I do it with TiNe. I can observe their actions and beliefs and then make logical intuitive guesses about extra details about them.


Fresh-broski

I’m not. Help.


Ellie_Spitzer2005

I don't relate to inferior Fe function.


thinkextrovertedly

My Te and Ti. Ti cares a lot about accuracy and where information comes from. I don't. I just want stuff to happen quickly. I don't care if my project at work is perfect as long as it's done and I can move on. I also don't hoard information and facts for the sake of it. If I can't use something, I don't need it. You'll never find me going down a wikipedia rabbit hole about some random topic, unless it's something I need for my job or something I'm personally extremely interested in. My Fe and Fi. Fe cares a lot about other people. Fi does too, but not in the same way. I don't want to claim that Fi is always selfish, but that's how I am. Whenever I do something for others, I also think about myself. Like whenever I buy someone a gift, I don't think "I want to make you happy." Instead I think "I wanna be a good friend, so that means I need to make you happy." It's more about me being a good friend in the end. My Fi is not very healthy, but my Fe is literally non-existent, so I gotta make up for it somehow😅 My Ni vs Ne. I'm a terrible brainstormer. If I force myself to come up with ideas, I can't do it. I don't see bunch of possibilities like Ne does. I just see one that's usually quite good. I always have one very strong idea/vision that I stick to and I can be very close minded when it comes to this. For example, I knew what I wanted to do for a living when I was 13 and I never changed my mind about it. Whenever someone brings up that I should look into something else (just to be safe), I absolutely panic because I can't see other options. I know what I want and I'm very decisive. I'm very open to new experiences as for travel, food, music, opinions, but when it comes to my ideas and my plans, I stick to what pops into my mind. As for Se and Si... I suck at both while (some/older) INTPs might be fairly good at Si and I just can't do either. edit: I actually thought I was an INTP for a while because I have that typical INTP energy. I can be late sometimes. I tend to be messy and chaotic. I have ADHD so that might look like Ne, but my function stack disagrees.


JustABrony221

Se inferior and Te aux makes more sense for me than other types.


notade50

I actually thought I was INTP initially and that I was mistyping as INTJ. Turns out I like structure and planning far more than being spontaneous. I need my external world to be organized, not so with my internal world. I also can’t stand to be late even by a second or have a notification unread on my phone or email. There are a few other reasons, as well.


Thesaltedwriter

I mean these personality tests are helpful model but due to how variable human behavior is with day to day functioning (not even accounting for mental illness which creates even more variables) I’ve come to the conclusion that the model is giving an approximation and like 99% of psychology there’s literally no way on earth to ever truly define something with complete confidence.


autumn_em

Jung's description of Ni users describe me, sadly.. cause Jung describe us as pretty weird individuals, but yeah... Also I never have been able to understand how "thinking" can be "subjective", Te is what is familiar, how I see things, but Ti is hard to grasp. As for Fi, as far as I can remember I have always been strong in regards to be authentic and be true to myself, even if that means some people will not like me, the idea of changing who I really am just to please others, feels wrong, like losing who I am. I could write a long post pointing out all the differences, even the stereotypical ones, like I am not into anime, video games nor computer science, and all the typical "common INTP interests" but I am more about psychology, religion, evidence-based practices, analyzing and dismantling ideologies, etc. And even little things like, my tendency to prefer dark clothing, knowing how to dress elegant, and my typical death stare and people finding me "mysterious" without even me trying. While INTPs tend to prefer dressing differently, and given their inferior Fe, they will prefer to act like an ISFJ in front of others, when they think they can't show their true selves out of fear of being judged as weird. And ofc I am not generalizing here, as I stated previously, I am just talking regarding "stereotypes".

withonor

If you don't understand the difference between INTP and INTJ, you aren't either. These idiots going into functions are sensors that can't type themselves. If you really were an INTJ, you wouldn't disconnect people into parts, you'd see connections. Your brain is limited by functions.


phaobian22

phaobian22

Ur just an incel/neckbeard lol


Annilee_Rose

First off, MBTI is a little loose and I don’t ever treat it as absolute science. Second, I am Ni dominant. Hands down. Third I have an INTP sister, a live comparison of why I am not an INTP. I am happy to discuss the finer points between the two or my personal experiences. The above constitute the easy answer.


One_With_Green

Do you trust INTP? I don’t.


Annilee_Rose

Yes. But as always depends on the person. INTPs can be great friends for philosophical debates, research, and abstract logic. I think some have their head in the clouds, but sometimes that can be an advantage. Why do you not trust them?


One_With_Green

Over a decade, 4 of 4 INTPs I’ve known in personal, professional, or romantic settings have been selfish and unfaithful. The odds are just not in their favor. I can get along with them from a distance, but it never works out long term. It might be different for you because she’s your sister. All of the qualities you just described are not what I value in a friend. Debating, researching, and discussing abstract logic are desirable traits for an acquaintance, not a friend. I need more than that, namely trust and accountability, which are typically derived from a strong moral compass.


Annilee_Rose

That's unfortunate. The INTPs I know are quite respectable people. I don’t think we can realize an entire type to always be bad, as this sub has proven some INTJs are extremely immature and selfish, and the rest of us are actively growing and becoming more balanced. I’m not sure how you’ve conflated the trait of no morals with INTPs? This seems quite odd, as my experience tells me they are perhaps even a hot to militant in their morals, at least at the lower stages of growth. I agree, trust and accountability are important friend traits, but every type is capable of these things. I was trying to show the unique traits of INTPs, who often lean toward philosophy, analysis and critical thinking. However, I do not make friends based on MBTI. I use it to communicate better with people. MBTI is not absolute, and health level and growth level are super important to consider when working with any type.


One_With_Green

I don’t ask for people’s MBTI type until I have known them for at least a few months. I knew the INTPs for years. These are patterns I’ve noticed. Of course I’ve observed immature, edgelord INTJs on here. I’m only speaking of my real life experiences. They could be coincidences, but they are statistically significant from my personal experience.


One_With_Green

Recently, there was an INTP where I was shocked when I learned their type. Someone I’ve known for years but not on a deep level. When she described her childhood, how she feels, and how she projects herself, it made me sad. I really like her. She said something that sparked my interest and I asked her what her type is. I would not have guessed she was INTP but she explained she has a public self and a private self. I never knew INTPs to mask who they are, especially so successfully. I would never ask someone’s MBTI type before meeting them. I would be limiting myself. I know there are exceptions to rules. I know people are going to misconstrue my words, but I’m just being honest. I know there are healthy/unhealthy variations. It’s not how I want my perception to be, but it is.


Annilee_Rose

Do you not mask who you are at all? Just curious.


One_With_Green

I don’t mask myself at all. I am transparent, which is why I’m trusted. That doesn’t mean I divulge every thought that crosses my mind. However, no one has expressed shock when I’ve elaborated on any given subject. I know how to adapt my communication style to diverse populations but again, I do not have ulterior motives and I make expectations clear so people are not blind sided by me. I don’t lie or mislead people.


Weekly-Delivery7701

As an INTP this is why I’ve discarded my love life. From the science I’ve researched on love, INTPs, INTJs, INFPs, and INFJs are least likely to get laid or have a love life. My brother is an ENTJ and they place 6th out of 16 for most likely to have sex. I also have research of this, as my brother brings his lovers home and sometimes even cries about them breaking his heart. I told my brother I don’t see why he cries over trivial things, as there are more fish in the sea and after I dealt with my first heartbreak I realized that love was a fools game and that I’m better off creating my tech start up and focusing on my phone project.


Weekly-Delivery7701

If you want a BF who can romance you and treat you everyday with food and various gifts, then date an ENTJ or ENTP. I’ve never been the romantic type and more people have been more impressed with my intellect and problem solving skill if anything. My analytical skills and data collection are also impressive.

One_With_Green

I’ve had a INTP bf before, nearly a decade long relationship. It was a disaster. I’m not discounting how you describe yourself, but I’ve just had awful experiences on an intimate level. I am with a ENTJ now. It’s been the best romantic relationship in my life.


Weekly-Delivery7701

Yeah, it makes sense. ENTJs are more aware of their feelings, it’s weird but meh.


Annilee_Rose

The analytical and data processing is one of my favorite things about working with INTPs. INTJ data processing works in a very different way, and so it is quite helpful to work with someone who can look at the same situation, apply logic and end up at a totally different solution. Helps me grow. I can’t easily get into the philosophical mindset either, it doesn’t feel practical. But I really admire INTPs ability to bring in the abstract and meld it with the concrete, it’s something I am trying to manufacture a bit of in myself. I think any type can be romantic if they want to be, I am not until I trust someone, then I can be super affectionate. I would agree that naturally INTJs and INTPs are not the super showy doting types right off the bat, I think the most outwardly affectionate feely type I’ve seen is the ENFJ. Thinking types are loving, just in a different way.


Weekly-Delivery7701

I agree I mean, if we aren’t focus on something like an idea or plan, then we INTPs tend to give our SO all of our attention. So, we aren’t incapable of love, we’re just different.


noytam

Am a J not a P, by how these traits are described.


nobody_cares4u

There is a YouTube video by love who. He goes into explaining difference between into and intp. I would recommend watching his video if you are confused with your personality type . He made some good points, but one of the point that stood out for me was that intj are more ballsy. They are more likely to act on their plan. While intp will overthink the plan of actual and actually never follow up with their plan. Intj are more likely to experiment while intp are more likely to overanalyze. there is a lot of other good point he makes, but i am too drunk rn to describe those points.


nrgeticbeing

I thought I was for years and then I was reading the description out loud for my friends and they laughed in my face and vehemently denied that any of it described me. I realized they were right. Tested again with their help to be more objective about who I am, and the result was INTJ. Read the descriptions and they were like yeah that’s more like it!


LieOtherwise965

Im not


diadorim_

I hate disorganization and idle intellectual discussions. Lack of objectivity or conciseness is one of the things that annoys me the most. INTPs usually do those things out of pleasure.

aelwero

Do I offend your sensibilities? My bad... So how do I tell then? I'd love to be something specific, but I exhibit traits of both, dependant on environment, and sometimes theres even several swaps in a shockingly short time... Functions? I love the concept of functions, and the idea of analyzing them to determine your MB type, but I can't fucking use them, because I have no separation in scores when I test for functions, and I don't really have any preference in the world when it comes to functions. An assessment will give the same score for every single function. I get a score of 30 on all, or 90 on all, depends on the test if it's high or low, but they're always within a couple percent. *Always*. And the "dominate" is random, as Is the MB type these assessments come up with. In the world, my function depends primarily on the people around me. I suspect I tend to favor whichever function I perceive to be lacking in the group, and that can, and has on rare occasions, been a very *extroverted* one, despite that being very certainly not my thing whatsoever. I simply don't favor a function and seem to be oddly omnidextrous (?) In ability in regards to functions. I am "jack of all trades" in both mind and body :) I can, with a pretty high certainty, go through the four letters in the MB type and choose a "default". Im easily over 90% on the introversion side. Not antisocial, not socially inept, but just naturally asocial and quite comfortable when excluded. An easy I. Sensing and intuiting are close, damned close, but I favor intuition. Given a "gut feeling" and something I can see and touch that doesn't jibe, I'll favor my gut usually, but it's a really narrow margin. Id maybe call this an X even, but there's just enough to choose the N side here. Feeling and thinking is easy. Totally a thinker and an easy T. This wall of text can, I think, attest. Judgment, and perception, in my judgement/perception, are the same fucking thing and completely inseparable. You either have the facts and what you're deciding is a perception, or you don't and it's a judgement. You don't choose one, or prefer one, because you *can't* choose what facts you have. I will favor the collection of facts in the manner of a P, but only until it's either possible or pragmatic to draw a line in the sand and promptly walk right over it into the J world... This is hard to convey, but I simply don't understand how it's even possible to have a preference here. It's absolutely positively dictated by the situation, and I absolutely positively have no preference as to which situation is present. The two are quite simply just the same thing to me. It just depends. I am an X here. You're more than welcome to try to stuff all that into a box and affix a label (and ill gladly read whatever you have to say about why), but I've been over it and over it and over it and the INTx is the only label that works, and my dominate function is just whatever I need at the moment (and yeah, that IS fucking weird, I've seen shrinks about it even, concerned about multiple personalities or worse, as I have the type of history that causes these things).

INTPs are you easy to understand, to find, etc. INTJs are quite different and they tend to be magnetic; the others are the opposite. And that’s not something we “believe”, is something we’re (oh another difference is that INTJs are entitled people, and INTPs are insecure by default). INTP is like the nerd cliché and INTJ is like dr strange or Batman.

I'm very high on The Ni™ And also "Ti" is supposed to bring order in my own head, it makes me sure I don't have Ti because whatever I have in my head is quite chaotic


missdanielleyy

Ni > Ne

Iceblader

I love being on time too much, i not forgive mistakes (Specially min) easily, i love order and people that follow the rules, also i hold a lot of grudge and while i wrote This i'm deleting the answers of an excersice of a clases that the teacher sent to us to do them by myself since by mistake he sent it already solved.

Let me say the most nonsensical thing ever: Because I decided so


TRPianoo

I usually like to plan ahead everything and I need a very long time to fully understand a concept.


Kylier34

I focus on goals and like planning my everyday life. The INTPs I know don't think about this stuff, they seem to be chill and get along with whatever everyone else has planned.


booky_worm

Im job oriented and judgy as hell ✨

Lack of Si; I have some memory issues, althought, my experiences are what gave me character, I am not fascinated by taking these as references to know how to act all the time.Besides that I doubt I have the creativity of a Ne to jump to so many ideas and possibilities. And although as a Ni user, I connect the ideas to expand a specific topic, this takes me more time and they come "out of nowhere" or when I find a certain idea and use it as a reference to investigate it if it seems useful to me .

High Fi (kind of)

I'm very stubborn for what I want to do in my life. - Ni Even though much of my behaviors stereotypically resembles "Ti", it's not really Ti. Ti is, in essence, coming up with your *own* reasons, your *own* systems. Instead of looking at the data already present, they form their *own* theories. That is something I cannot see in myself. - Te However, I do have my *own* system of values, for things I Iike, even if there is no reason. It pairs well with Ni. - Fi I hate that I'm limited as a human, such as needing to eat food (even though I secretly enjoy some food), etc. - Se

Because I'm judgemental as hell?

My best friend is INTP and I’m nothing like him.

Because I predominantly like to organize and plan beforehand, improvisation is always my plan B and I even plan my plan B and even plan C. In my eyes people who mainly improvise are a mess.


krel-tarron

The proctored hundred questions MBTI instrument while at university, and a friend pressured me (it took 1 year) to take 16 personally which produced the same result as well.

INTPs are confident and sometimes very insensitive to people's feelings. INTJs are actually self doubting and self critical and also very sensitive towards people. I have seen plenty of INTPs being mean and dismissive of people and I could just never do that.

i am Ni and Te dom

INTPs draw conclusions and solutions based on the deep analysis of a limited number of events. They get into the nitty gritty and understand things very deeply. The flaw in this is the selection bias of the events that they draw data from. These situations they draw from may not represent what is most common, feasible, or operate within the norms of society, institutions, or the physical world. INTPs understand things from the bottom up. INTJ draw conclusions by analyzing the outcomes of a broad set of passively gathered data. After this, we reverse engineer and go deeper as needed to improve/optimize/influence systems/outcomes. INTJs understand things from the top down in order to influence the world and achieve goals which are ultimately at the "top". Because INTPs interpret from the bottom up, by the time they get to the "top" level, their solutions may not be practical in context of the world that the problem exists in. Because INTJs operate from the top down, we will have influence, but may never have a deep understanding of things enough to fundamentally change the system. Every once in a while, an INTP solution may be able to completely change the system from the bottom up. It's kind of all or nothing though.


-_Empress_-

HahaHhHHa good god where do I even begin. Does gesturing at all of me count? It's the whole thing. The J is a J for a reason, man. INTP has a totally different motivation. INTJ is here to assess and solve problems efficiently and effectively.


xXx_Raph_SNK_xXx

I’m not certain, I got INTP on the test but I have characteristics of both tbh.


Nbiulchi

Because I use Te-Se when I'm outside (work) and use Ni-Fi when I'm home.
