<p>You might like being a creative writing or English major?</p>
<p>Really, you should just study what you’re interested in, and not dwell on personality tests.</p>
<p>Mark Twain was an ENFP</p>
<p>I’m one too…geology major, & grew into consulting…which requires not only what I learned from my degree, but lots of writing & talking with clients, as well as a good dose of business.</p>
<p>I think almost any major would be fine…its what you do later (i.e, what types of jobs & roles build off your ENFP) that matters most. It will all work out.</p>
<p>I’m an ENFP. =) I think I read somewhere that majors like political science, english, business, communication, and journalism are popular. Good with abstract topics, but also at adapting them to the real world.</p>
<p>I’ve always thought Journalism</p>
<p>I’m an ENFP but I’m choosing a career path that doesn’t necessarily fit my complete personality description (biology). Perhaps it has something to deal with my unrelenting delusions of grandeur.</p>

<p>Interesting enough, I’ve that scientist is a common path for ENFPs.</p>
<p>At work, ENFPs are adaptable, welcome new ideas and new information, are well aware of people and their feelings, and relate well to most, albeit with some psychological distance. ENFPs dislike telephone interruptions and work well alone, as well as with others. They are patient with complicated situations, but impatient with routine details. They can make errors of fact, but seldom of values. Their career choices may be toward the ministry, missionary work, college teaching, science, music, architecture, psychology-and away from business. They seem willing and usually are able to apply themselves scholastically to gain the necessary training for professional work, often doing better in college than in high school. They have a natural interest in scholarly activities and demonstrate, as do the other NF’s, a remarkable facility for languages. Often they hear a calling to go forth into the world to help others; they seem willing to make the necessary personal sacrifices involved in responding to that call, even if it means asking others to do likewise. ENFPs can make outstanding novelists and character actors, for they are able to efface their own personalities in their portrayal of a character in a way other types cannot</p>
<p>Here’s a list from <a href=“http://www.personalitypage.com/ENFP_car.html[/url]”>http://www.personalitypage.com/ENFP_car.html</a></p>
<h1>Consultant</h1>
<h1>Psychologist</h1>
<h1>Entrepreneur</h1>
<h1>Actor</h1>
<h1>Teacher</h1>
<h1>Counselor</h1>
<h1>Politician / Diplomat</h1>
<h1>Writer / Journalist</h1>
<h1>Television Reporter</h1>
<h1>Computer Programmer, Systems Analyst, or Computer Specialist</h1>
<h1>Scientist</h1>
<h1>Engineer</h1>
<p>i had never been interested by this type (nor heard) of personality test so after i found out about it i decided to take myer-briggs type indicator test at <a href=“http://www.personalitytest.net%5B/url%5D”>www.personalitytest.net</a></p>
<p>i have to say i’m a bit surprised that the result of the test and the personality they labeled me with do actually descibe most of my personality characteristics quite accurately… it told me i’m an INTP</p>
<p>General Traits</p>
<pre><code>* Logical
- Aloof / Absent-Minded
- Analytical
- Discriminating
- Independent
- Curious
- Innovative
- Easy-going
- Emotionally Detached
- Big-picture oriented / Theoretical
- Knowledgeable
- Unconventional / Nonconformist
- Eccentric
- Quiet
- Adaptable
</code></pre>
<p>that entire list actually is fairly accurate except for eccentri and discriminating perhaps…</p>
<p>Stressors</p>
<pre><code>* The incompetence of others
- Incompetency in oneself
- Small talk
- Being pressured to make decisions
- Having to make subjective decisions
- A lack of knowledge / pertinent information
- Dishonesty in others
- Social gatherings
- Implementation of ideas
- Routine
- Redundancy
- Groupwork
</code></pre>
<p>once again this is very accurate… i hate liars in particular, i dislike dumb people, and i hate it when i make dumb mistakes… i don’t like social gatherings and groupwork and the rest of the stuff is spot on as well</p>
<p>Relationships</p>
<p>INTPs -</p>
<pre><code>* Are often unaware of the feelings of others.
- use thinking based solutions when trying to help someone who is experiencing strong emotions.
- Can be seen as cold and calculating
- Often don’t have an active social life
- Dislike irrational emotion.
- Dislike emotional disharmony
- Tend to be loyal, faithful
- Are not usually demanding in their relationships
</code></pre>
<p>…that seems once again accurate…</p>
<p>Careers that allow for abstract thought, creativity, and independence are highly sutable for INTPs. Some careers that fulfill this description are scientists, engineers, computer programmers and consultants.</p>
<p>oddly enough i’ve been looking into an engineering major lately and have begun to favor engineering heavily… who knows though i might end up as an art history major…</p>
<p>still kind of cool though how almost all the stuff they said about my personality was accurate… to other people who have taken the test, were your results accurate?</p>
<p>Myers Briggs has been popular for years, & is often used in leadership & business training.</p>
<p>here’s another thread on the subject:
<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=151521[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=151521</a></p>
<p>I thought my results (ENFP) were pretty accurate. We took a sort of small, mini-test in my health class that labelled me an ENFP and when I got home, I was so curious that I googled a new test, which gave me a similar result. I really think it’s accurate for me.</p>
<p>So are ENFPs good or bad for business? Also are you all female? I’ve heard that they were very few male ENFPs like myself, which kind of makes me feel bad lol.</p>
<p>Haha, I’m a male. Hence the yougotJOHN.</p>
