According to the test above: INTP, 89, 38, 38, 11

The problems with such tests can be summed up with question 3 at the
above url. "You feel at ease in a crowd, yes/no". Where's the "it
depends"-option? How do they define crowd? Large group? Small group? In
a big area? In a small area? People you know? Mostly unknown people?
Crowd existing for a purpose (like a march) or crowd that just happen
(waiting for the bus)? "you" being in a bad mood? "you" being happy?
Etc. (The NT part is right though, I waste a lot of time analyzing my
and other people's behavior :) )
