Explanation of the Results:
This type of personality test uses four indexes of personality and the combination of the four is your personality type. The first index relates to how you interact with other people and can be Extroverted (E), meaning you're more outgoing or Introverted (I), meaning you keep more to yourself. The second relates to how you make decisions; whether you're Intuitive (N), getting answers from within, or you rely on Sensing (S) information from your surroundings, using your five senses. The third relates to whether you're more emotional and Feeling (F) or rational and Thinking (T). The fourth relates to whether you prefer things to be organized, meaning you're Judging (J), or you prefer things to be more unbound, meaning you're Perceiving (P).

Way back when I first started college I did the full Myers-Briggs type indicator as part of a class. I was 16 and scored as INTP. I find it a bit interesting that I'm ending up more as a J now, but as I recall I was pretty close to borderline on the J/P aspect (and so far over into the T there was no F component at all, but that's another story.)

I'm sure everyone on my friends list that has an interest in Harry Potter has read these already, but on the off chance that someone missed them like I did, I'll link. :)

How the Wizarding World Really Works (a ten part series with an appendix!) by pharnabazus

[Highly recommended for the history geeks on my list.]

I'll hop in the bandwagon for this one. And expand it a bit.

• I shall list 15 fandoms I'm involved with.
• You shall guess my favorite character/person and my favorite pairing/One True Pairing.
• I shall update the list by:
  • putting the fandom with correctly guessed characters in bold
  • putting the fandom with correctly guessed pairings in italics

( See the list here. )

SLYTHERIN! You scored 56% Slytherin, 28% Ravenclaw, 32% Gryffindor, and 8% Hufflepuff!

Or perhaps in Slytherin You'll make your real friends, These cunning folk use any means To achieve their ends. Slytherins are known for their ambition, guile, and Machiavellian sensibilities.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 99% on Slytherin You scored higher than 50% on Ravenclaw You scored higher than 12% on Gryffindor You scored higher than 1% on Hufflepuff

Finally a sorting hat quiz that recognizes my true nature! *smirk*

Actually I was thinking my Ravenclaw score would be higher, but I think I've had enough experience in schooling to know that I don't need to study like mad to score very well. I know my learning style and it doesn't need a lot of effort. Thank gods.
