Assessment and personality tests

[Fome Ewhe]

I've had the M.B test once or twice, got the same results too, but personally I'm skeptical about all personality tests. They can be insightful but I think that's all there is to it. And results are based largely on ones perception of self which, for me, I believe can be inaccurate. I also think your "mood" can affect how you answer and thus your results. I'm wish to try a different route: To observe my interactions with self and environment, I hope I'll find the answers I couldn't get from M.B this way.

I haven't tried any of the personality tests listed. I dnt believe it is truly helpful in determining one's best career or personality. I am not interested in any except for Myer Briggs test, am curious and will try it out someday.

I find them useful. I didn't have the time to take them all, but I saved the links to take them later.

I haven't bothered to task the test yet because I'm still reading. Perhaps, when I'm done I shall consider taking the tests.

[Elisa Martinez Garcia]

I did all the free tests and I like all of them. It helped me a lot to understand myself better and to know why I do what I do :p

I absolutely love taking personality and assessment tests like the meyers-briggs test. I have taken it at least 10 times because I also second-guess my personality type. That makes sense since I'm an INTP, and that's part of what they do. And then, of course, I'll occasionally take random personality tests like what animal are you, or what random movie character you are, and things like that.

While I do not find the random tests insightful, I believe the Meyers-Briggs test has been insightful for me. It has helped me realize how my brain works, and when it works in a way that not many others relate to, it leaves you feeling isolated. With the test, though, I found out why it works the way it does and how to use it to my benefit.

I and lots of my friends have taken Myers-Briggs. I found nice that the author included that. Personally, I agree with most of what my results indicated but obviously not everything can be accurate.

I am really into personality and assessment tests. I am an INFJ in MBTI. I am a highly sensitive person.

[Izzy Kruger]

I think these tests benefit people who don't feel like they know themselves well enough when wanting to make a change in life. I believe that none of the personality tests I have ever taken has brought me further insight into myself, and they place people in unnecessary boxes that limit them. If you are told you are an introvert, staying in the house and not desire to partake in social activity is suddenly okay. I have heard people use the fact that they are certain types of "personalities" as excuses for being rude and inconsiderate.

[Elisa Martinez Garcia]

I took only the free test and I like it. I always like to know what these kinds of tests have to say about me.

[Ruth Omonegho]

I haven't taken any of the tests yet but I will in time. I want to try out every ounce of truth and practical solutions as revealed in this book and indeed any book giving financial education.

[Nweze Raalchukwu1]

They certainly were insightful. Some I agreed with and some I do not agree with.

[Eruore Ekpoh]

I am yet to take any of the assessment tests, but I will make sure to go back and revisit them.

[Meenahhhh]

I have taken a few of these tests and while I found them to be insightful, I can’t say I would recommend them. Why? Because our personalities are not set in stone. We grow, learn and change everyday, and these tests are not made to honour that.

[Julie Gebrosky]

I took the Myers-Briggs test years ago. It would be interesting to take it again now and see if I have a different result. I don’t recall it making a big impact on my career choices. I believe I would have chosen my career path regardless.
