If only it would for me too. XP If I remember correctly, the strengths went something like this:
I'd like to point out that while I scored INTJ, my Thinking strength (and my Thinking strength on the Myers-Briggs) was rather low: 1% strong this go-round.
Now this isn't creepy at all... I scored 1% on T as well. My approach to matters in life has always been different from everyone else in my family.
And as for leading, I like to be in the background pulling the strings, not the front man issuing commands. When the day ends, I like to be in control, but not necessarily the one in the spotlight and under pressure. Through suggestions and advice my wishes are followed....usually.
Funny, because I am terrible at chess.
I believed myself to be terrible at chess until a few months ago when I actually sat down and took on my older brother in several fast paced training games. He teaches chess classes here about once a month. Turns out I'm not too bad. Maybe you just need a skilled teacher. ^^

Okay... o_O my result is ISTJ Not sure how that works since the job listings that fit that personality are not me at all. I mean management, accounting, computer programming... where the hell is the music option!?! :p
I am very organized and very punctual though, kind of habit since my job requires it. The rest of it, the fighting change and all that... not really.

Truly an interesting test. I came out INFP: Introverted Intuitive Feeling Perceiving. I had a little fun and clicked on the Career Indicator. Web Design came up. I'm certified in Web Design. I just need to find the job to go with the piece of paper!! It also mentions Literature/Writer. I love to write. I have always loved it. Another one came up that has always interested me, but I didn't take the right track to get there: Archaeologist. Yep. I wanna be Indiana Jones.
A bit about me?: 'INFJs are twice blessed with clarity of vision, both internal and external. Just as they possess inner vision which is drawn to the forms of the unconscious, they also have external sensing perception which readily takes hold of worldly objects. Sensing, however, is the weakest of the INFJ's arsenal and the most vulnerable. INFJs, like their fellow intuitives, may be so absorbed in intuitive perceiving that they become oblivious to physical reality. The INFJ under stress may fall prey to various forms of immediate gratification. Awareness of extraverted sensing is probably the source of the "SP wannabe" side of INFJs. Many yearn to live spontaneously; it's not uncommon for INFJ actors to take on an SP (often ESTP) role.'
My favorite part had to be: NFJs, like their fellow intuitives, may be so absorbed in intuitive perceiving that they become oblivious to physical reality.
Maybe this explains why I'm constantly spacing out during math class, and my attention span is so short...

And that's kind of creepy, just how many of us are there in here? :p Though I won't argue with a few points brought up in the description:
INTJs apply (often ruthlessly) the criterion "Does it work?" to everything from their own research efforts to the prevailing social norms. This in turn produces an unusual independence of mind, freeing the INTJ from the constraints of authority, convention, or sentiment for its own sake.
INTJs really want people to make sense.
Anything is possible; everything is negotiable.
INTJs see what might be and say "Why not?!"
I'd say that fits my line of thinking rather well. :p
I just mean "wrong hands" in that sometimes when you start typing all your friends and family members (and spouses if you have 'em) it can sometimes lead to relationship complications and other kindsa stuff like that.
Remember, these aren't what you are; they're what you prefer.
That said, it's amusing that there's a lot of I's here . . . though considering the nature of the net, I guess it's not too surprising, nya?
ENFJs know and appreciate people. Like most NFs, (and Feelers in general), they are apt to neglect themselves and their own needs for the needs of others. They have thinner psychological boundaries than most, and are at risk for being hurt or even abused by less sensitive people.
Boy. Have I ever been used and hurt by others.
I did nearly laugh when I read this part:
ENFJs are, by definition, Js, with whom we associate organization and decisiveness.
I am quite possibly the least organized or decisive person I know. haha. I thought that they must have missunderstood my indecisiveness as meaning I was decisive. lol. But then I read that they meant with matters to do with people, not work or physical organization.
Yay for being like timechaser except I'm extraverted instead of introverted^^ That's pretty cool though.
And it's scary that so many people (including my sister) are INTJs. lol

And this one:
ENTJs are decisive. They see what needs to be done, and frequently assign roles to their fellows. Few other types can equal their ability to remain resolute in conflict, sending the valiant (and often leading the charge) into the mouth of hell.

The Portait of the Mastermind (INTJ)
Of the four aspects of strategic analysis and definition, it is the contingency planning or entailment organizing role that reaches the highest development in Masterminds. Entailing or contingency planning is not an informative activity, rather it is a directive one in which the planner tells others what to do and in what order to do it. As the organizing capabilities of the Masterminds increase so does their inclination to take charge of whatever is going on.
It is in their abilities that Masterminds differ from the other Rationals, while in most of their attitudes they are just like the others. However there is one attitude that sets them apart from other Rationals: they tend to be much more self-confident than the rest, having, for obscure reasons, developed a very strong will. They are rather rare, comprising no more than, say, one percent of the population. Being very judicious, decisions come naturally to them; indeed, they can hardly rest until they have things settled, decided, and set. They are the people who are able to formulate coherent and comprehensive contingency plans, hence contingency organizers or "entailers."
Masterminds will adopt ideas only if they are useful, which is to say if they work efficiently toward accomplishing the Mastermind's well-defined goals. Natural leaders, Masterminds are not at all eager to take command of projects or groups, preferring to stay in the background until others demonstrate their inability to lead. Once in charge, however, Masterminds are the supreme pragmatists, seeing reality as a crucible for refining their strategies for goal-directed action. In a sense, Masterminds approach reality as they would a giant chess board, always seeking strategies that have a high payoff, and always devising contingency plans in case of error or adversity.
In their drive for efficient action, Masterminds are the most open-minded of all the types. No idea is too far-fetched to be entertained-if it is useful. Masterminds are natural brainstormers, always open to new concepts and, in fact, aggressively seeking them. They are also alert to the consequences of applying new ideas or positions. Theories which cannot be made to work are quickly discarded by the Masterminds. On the other hand, Masterminds can be quite ruthless in implementing effective ideas, seldom counting personal cost in terms of time and energy.
Stephen Hawking and Sir Isaac Newton are examples of Rational Masterminds.
