I suppose I should take this oppurtunity to introduce myself?

Hello.
I'm Kate.
I am, apparently, an INTP, though I once tested as INTx. I wonder if that was due to myself, or the accuracy of the test?

I'd like to be able to say that I'm well educated, but that's possibly not as true as I wish it were. Intelligence doesn't always manage to make up the difference.

I'd like to be able to say that "If you want to chat, I'm here", but that's probably not true, either.

The only thing I can honestly say about myself is that if I'm wrong about something, I want to know, and if I don't make sense, it would be nice if you told me.
I'd like to beter myself and my intellect- hence my having joined an internet forum, I suppose.

It was the accuracy of the test. Many people don't fall neatly into the categories prescribed. There are many inconsistencies between the personalities of the people tested, and in many ways the more refined parts of the instrument fall short in their accuracy. It only works to give you a vague image of yourself, that should be taken with a grain of salt. It isn't suited for much else, although we occasionally try to create odd arguments and tests here to base more accurate ideas on the test's framework.

Well, you have the rest of your life to learn anything you wish. Don't waste it regretting your past, that's all I can say. There are ways to learn things aside from school.

You're not obligated to be there for people, you can contribute as little or as much as you like. It's up to you to decide if and how much to make yourself available to people.

I believe I can understand you perfectly on this point. And I will be sure to do just that.

We'll see what we can do. However, it might help if we knew what areas you felt deficient in, and what you wanted to work on.

Very discreet Athenian. Nobody else would have noticed you had corrected her spelling, but for I, Hercule Poirot!
