Keep your Meyers-Briggs to yourself and your friends

I took the real MBTI test in grad school as part of the professor's research. Nothing online comes close to the real test. Despite the fact that it's not viewed as positively as it once was, I found the MBTI to be rather insightful and helpful to me personally. I've also taken the Big 5 as part of a professional seminar at work and didn't find it as helpful. It seemed to be biased in favor of extroversion, for example, while MBTI merely outlined the characteristics without attaching value judgements.

You're rather overdoing the self-promotion. Share something with us you're curious about (that doesn't benefit you)

Online personality tests are not Meyers-Briggs. The real ones are several hundred questions, some of which repeat themselves in different wording and costs money so using their name is probably not a great idea.

Here [1] is the real site for Meyers-Briggs.
