I think it's important to remember that online tests are dumb scripts returning answers based on a very narrow metric. If you want an accurate personality type or an IQ test, go to a trained professional. Avoid anything online.
As a side observation, it seems to me that a LOT of people come back with INTJs -- more than in real life. They sort of view it as a badge of honor, and in many cases, a justification for their antisocial behavior or social troubles.

I think you'll see what I mean.

I came back with INTP: 50 introverted, 38 intuitive, 12 thinking, 6 percieving. I'll admit, I am antisocial. I find my best moments are spent alone and with certain friends than in big social gatherings or the workplace.

So NT's (the "Competitive" type, as Persona Architecture calls them,) make up over two thirds of the 600 Club so far. Rational and fast-paced. Yeah, I was pretty much expecting that. The most common full type is the INTJ, which seems to make up over a third of the 600 club thus far.
I knew that Morgan would be a J, which is probably why I tend to drive her crazy. I'm an INTP. The description provided by Zophos is a quite accurate portrayal of how I work. P's are always picking at the nuance of things, the fine print, learning all the in's and out's of every last knitty gritty detail. J's, on the other hand, are satisfied with knowing the general answer for practical purposes. Once a J has made up her mind, she's ready to move on to the next thing. P's tend to linger. My nit-picking need for precision of meaning tends to irritate the ever-living kaka out of J's.
P moment:
When I was 3, I asked my mother if I could have an apple. She said no, I could not; it was just 15 minutes to dinner and I'd ruin my appetite. She came back in to see me eating a banana. When she asked why I had defied her, I pointed out that technically she had forbidden me to have an apple; she had said nothing about a banana. As an N, I was able to make the connection and knew that I was defying her intentions, but as a P, I found a loophole anyway.
I'm also not surprised that Jake999 is an SJ, or "Methodical" type. These people dot all their i's and cross all their t's; they're the kind you want managing paperwork and the like. He's the perfect type for the kind of work he did at the Black House.
I'm surprised that people view "INTJ" as a badge of honor, as SODOMIZER describes it. The most successful and well educated type is the ENTJ (Morgan's type). Their charisma (E), comprehension of the bigger picture (N), rational approach (T), and decisive behavior (J) lend themselves to getting lots of shit done, fast and well. I somewhat envy them; I often find myself drifting off into pontification instead of finishing stuff. I tend to over-analyze whatever I'm working on, and it slows me down.
