The Foreseer

I got this from collegeboard.com and it's quite the nifty. Here's what mine said:

INFZs* are reserved, modest, imaginative, and neat. As an INFZ you are particularly concerned with expressing and living up to your beliefs and values and with developing an emotional understanding of the world around you. You strive for harmony and peace in all areas of life. You value learning, integrity, and personal growth. You believe that life is a puzzle and that it is your challenge to solve it.

You prefer having a few close and deep friendships and generally dislike being part of large, crowded events. You tend to keep your inner thoughts and feelings to yourself although you may reveal them to a very good friend. You take criticism personally no matter what its intended purpose. You love independence and usually enjoy being different from everybody else.

Your greatest challenge is to develop a sense of purpose and meaning for your life and when this path becomes clear, you will work quietly and methodically toward your goal. You may find your life purpose in an overarching political or social issue but do not like to be in the spotlight while working to further the cause. You are someone who focuses on the big picture and only then considers its salient parts. As an INFZ you take a planned and meticulous approach to managing your time. You find it difficult to adapt to unexpected change and may show this discomfort openly. You are creative and precise in expressing your ideas, which you do most effectively through writing. You love to read, study, and learn, finding intellectual subjects and ones that relate to emotional and personal growth most appealing.

INFZs are most often found in career fields where they can contribute to the welfare and benefit of others in a stable and slowly changing environment. As an INFZ you will be most satisfied and productive when you are involved in work that enables you to use your imagination and creativity. You are most interested in jobs that allow you to work quietly and dependably towards your goals.
