Her name is Katy, and I'm stuck between ESTJ or ENTJ.
She has a dominating personality and likes to control. She, in a way, also likes to be the center of attention.
Apparently, she said she likes to work alone because she'd get too controlling over the project and wouldn't work so well with a partner, or something to that effect. She likes to be around people, though. When I was standing next to her in the hall as we were waiting for first period to begin, she sighed and asked where everyone was; she wanted to talk to someone.
Sometimes, when she's rummaging through her locker to organize what she needs and doesn't need, she'll turn to me and say "Hold this" without much of a please or any formality. I figure she doesn't do it on purpose- she's more blunt like that without realizing that it could offend some people.
In class, she'll often share her thoughts, though some say they're random, have relevance to the topic discussed, although it's not exactly the same. I can't say whether it would be an experience she had that was similar to what was said or the concept of the topic that she related it to when she comments on the discussion due to poor memory.
During the latter half of last year, she began to not look at her grades. Come this year, she begins to freak out whenever someone decides to tease her and tell her a grade she received. When it's on accident she chides them, though it's less serious or frustrated. In math class, our tests were handed back. Those who received a sticker (whee, stickers) got an A. Someone mentioned that she had a sticker as she was writing up a problem on the board, and she had some kind of brat attack for a moment and yelled and stomped her foot on the ground. It was pretty funny, though also quite extreme.
Our ESFJ Psychology teacher adored her, even though she would sometimes skip the first ten minutes in the our IB Coordinator's room. There she probably expressing her distress, which she often seems to experience, as when someone asked what she did in there, she jokingly said "talk about me".
She obssesses about her grades (despite refusing to see them, which is probably a part of the paranoia of failing), and studies like a monster when tests come around. Near the advent of our Psychology exam she created a twenty-five (or seven?) page study guide and over one hundred flashcards of psychologists, experiments and definitions.
Some (maybe all) people occassionally get annoyed by her antics which draw attention to herself, though it's nothing enough to dislike her. She's friends with a lot of people, though one kid, whom I figure to be an INTP, never seems to interact with her.
Haha, long description is loooong.
So, what are your thoughts? As soon as I saw her I thought ISTJ, though I didn't know about her desire to chat and interact with a bunch of people beforehand. Then I moved on to ESTJ, but then I had some doubts not really based on anything reasonable to make me think she's an ENTJ. That doubt never stays for long, though I could be wrong, thus this thread.
