Your test results indicate you are a 7 most likely.

: idiosyncratic:24
: adventurous:25
: mercurial:20
: dramatic:25
: leisurely:22

These five styles clearly dominate. There is also a strong pattern between these types which would say youre a 7. Let's look at the three main 7 styles - Adventurous, Mercurial, and Dramatic. These three styles are very intense and extraverted and impulsive. Adventurous is the clearest match with 7. Dramatic matches will with 7 and 2. Mercurial with 7 and 4. The Leisurely style works in that 7s aren't exactly anal-retentive Judging types, but instead are laid-back casual Perceivers. The idiosyncratic style could be your link to 5 and/or an open-mindedness and accepting nature. The point I'm trying to make is each of these styles all clearly point to 7 in one way and I dont think it's just a coincidence.

: vigilant:2
: solitary:2

Both these types are introverted and guarded. 5w6 and 6w5s would score high on these types.

: self-confident:2
: sensitive:11

The Sensitive style does not appear to play much influence in you. This is one of the two main styles that match with Four.

: devoted:8
: conscientious:0 (gulp)

This comes as no surprise. Your top styles are all Perceiving types.

: aggressive:12

Part of your 8 wing?

: self-sacrificing:10

This matches with 2, 4, or 9.

: serious:2

No Four would score so low on this.


Actually, the thing about your test results is that they are the most Consistent I've seen! Like in my case, I score high on Dramatic and Solitary -- these are complete opposites with each other. But in your results, there is a perfect harmony. You score high on all the extraverted, impulsive styles and score the lowest on the introverted, methodical, structured styles.

On the Myers-Briggs, you would be Very extraverted, very intuitive, mostly feeling, and EXTREMELY perceiving, hence ENFP. Not only did you score so high on all the P styles, there was a 22 point difference between Conscientious and Leisurely.

From these test results ALONE, you score clearly as a 7. I can't see any other type for you based on this. Now, we must remember, that I base this conclusion on just this test. It may be very inaccurate of you for all I know. I wouldn't outright dismiss it as "just a test" though because your results are very clear to me and I just can't see this as a simple mistake.
