Gacked from Meg
I always get INFJ, as long as I haven't taken these things after some big emotional event, in which case I sometimes get ISFJ or ISFP or INTJ. But I'm very INFJ and usually get that, so twas nice to see that even a silly, cute little HP one gave me the same result! Whoohoo! Though I sort of wish I'd scored a INFP just so I could be like Remus :-) But I don't like when things are undefined and unorganized. I'm anal when it comes to details and I like the unknown to be spelled out completely before I approach it. So, yeah, I'm afraid I'm more of a J than I P. Sad. I love Remus... heehee

THough I don't know about this... I certainly have very set opinions about some things... but I'm the most indecisive person I know. So *shrug* I don't know about the description. And I personally see Dumbledore as an extrovert- he's a leader, he's a doer. Sure, he's secretive... but I'm not sure that's enough to make him an introvert. I don't know... must think on this more. He's certainly empathetic and ethical, though. I'll agree with those.

I got first Voldemort (INTP), then Snape (INTJ), then Hermione (ISTJ), and finally Madame Hooch (ISTP), all by changing one or two answers that I was undecided on.

The first time I took the MBTI test back in college about 5 years ago, I got ISTP, but the percentage between P and J, and between S and N was very close on my test, so that a single answer or two could have made it go the other way. I'm definitely an I and a T though.

Haven't talen this one yet, but on the subject of Introvert, Extrovert, just wanted to pass on something I heard explained when I was first introduced to this type of test. The "thing" they are trying to get at with the Introvert/Extrovert distinction is whether you need other people or solitude in order to re-charge yourself or to derive your energy from. Personally, I am an extremely outgoing person in real life - there is no one who would say I am shy at least. But I still always come up as an introvert on these, because I expend all my energy in dealing with other people - and love to do so - but in order to re-charge and regain my inner energy, I have to have my time to myself. I need time to read, to walk and think, to write, reflect, whatever. I need time with myself in order to feel my best and if I went without any time to myself for too long, I would get run down and start feeling like there was something wrong. Extroverts on the other hand, seem to need other people around them in order to derive their energy and to re-charge themselves. They can be alone for periods of time, but would feel something missing or wrong if they had too much solitude.

Anyway, don't know if you have heard this before or if you agree with it or not, but that was how that particular distinction was explained to me. I can see that Dumbledore is indeed a leader and that he does very well in the limelight...however, I also can see how Dumbledore would need time to reflect and to just be alone with his own thoughts in order to really be, feel and act his best and most powerful self. I don't think an extrovery Dumbledore would be nearly as powerful as in individual if he was driven be those around him instead of within himself.

What do you think?

I got an ENFJ- which seems to make sense with Patty's explaination. I wouldn't really consider myself either a Leader per sey nor a social butterfly, however when I am down I definately need to be around people to perk me up. Even just talking on the phone or iming with a good friend can lift my spirits.

However, unlike Olympia- I am Not really, really tall. ;)
