Myers Briggs typing

I got a link to a testing website from the Graduate School because they're running a course on MBTI. Apparently my style is ISTJ (Introspective, Sensing, Thinking, Judging) which is an Inspector. I was a bit less clear on the Sensing/Intuiting dichotomy, and that's where it's least accurate (because I'm a bit like INTJ too).

I thought it was really interesting, though! Matt's got a book on it, and it said in there that ISTJs really enjoy making things with their hands, and are often knitters! He tested as ISTP, and the book said they often like riding motorbikes and doing dangerous sports, so it's not right 100% of the time. It definitely highlighted the differences between us, given that we're the same on three of the dichotomies: I'm all about planning and worrying, and he's way less concerned and uptight about that kind of thing.

This was my breakdown of the careers that tend to be followed by my style:

More Popular Occupations	Less Popular Occupations
Accountancy and Book-keeping Armed Services Computer Specialists Dentists Engineers Farmers Financial Services Managers and Administrators Manufacturing Police Technicians	Artists and Entertainers Counsellors Nurses Psychologists Religious Workers Teachers (Arts subjects) Writers and Journalists

So yeah, I'm thinking of maybe becoming an accountant?

I'd really like to go to the course they're offering on it, but I'm already skipping work to go to a careers one this term.
