The Myers-Briggs Personality Inventory is one of the most popular personality tests used around the country today. It has four components: extraversion/introversion, intuitive/sensate, thinking/feeling, and judging/percieving that make up our personality. After taking a Myers-Briggs personality test, we are given a code that represents the four areas. This code is a determination of the strength (degree) to which we have the characteristics named in the above list.
Here are defintions of each of the four categories:
When you click on the link below, an online test will automatically appear. You will need to finish the test in one sitting since you cannot save it, so give yourself enough time to finish the questions (about 30-45 minutes). Just choose among one of the three choices you will be given in a series of questions.
Once you have completed the test, the website will give you a four-letter personality code. This will be in bold letters with a percentage following the letters. The bold represents your main characteristic and the percentage is the strength in which you possess that characteristic. (The closer you are to 100%, the stronger the quality.)

For instance, I am an ESFJ, meaning I am an Extravert-Sensate-Feeler-Judger. I can read about my personality and/or use my code to access other websites that explain the Myers-Briggs. Just remember your code, since it generally won't change.
Following the code are some links that will explain your personality. Look at links three and four for your personality summary and career information related to your personality. Don't skip the explanations or careers since you will need to provide information about this at test time.
Here are defintions of each of the four categories:
- Extraversion/Introversion - "where we get our energy" - Is our energy supplied from outside sources or within ourselves?
- Intuitive/Sensate - "how we see the world" - Do we notice situations in their entirety or do we see the smaller details?
- Thinking/Feeling - "how we make decisions" - Are we led by our head or our heart?
- Judging/Perceiving - "how we lead our lives" - Are we punctual and organized or spontaneous and disorganized?
