oh, cool, Pepper! I printed the test and the results and plan to find out who I am first chance I get. Not sure if I know how to interpret the results, but maybe you can help with that if I lose my way. Thanks.

No problem!

Just let me know and I'll help you out.

It looks like you are an ENFP Although your N/S and P/J are somewhat close. So it could be ENFP, ESFP, ENFJ, ESFJ so it's narrowed down to four. And yes, you can decrease your "I" by strengthening the "E" easily especially if you've been working on it for a while. I think the best way to look at the questions are imagining that you are under pressure in situations or slightly stressed out, then what would you do? For instance given a set of tasks everyone can skip around and do a little of this and a little of that but when there is a pressing deadline and time is running out an "S" will start processing one thing at a time chronologically while an "N" would feel less comfortable doing it that way. I can give you the info on these four that you came up with unless you want to try it again with all this in mind.... it would probably be more accurate.

As far as the J/P goes I hate it when I finish things because to me it means it's over. I like leaving things open as a work in progress and feel comfortable that I can always change things.... or when I read books that are a series, I never seem to finish the last book because I don't want it to end. Haha.... I also hate time pressure and would rather take my time to do something to my own satisfaction but under time pressure I nearly give up because it goes against my ability to give it real effort. So naturally I'm a "P" but that doesn't mean that someone could be on the line of being both if the A's and B's are nearly the same amount. For me my P heavily outnumbered my J.... but my N and S are relatively close.
