You're a tough one. INXJ seem right as your thinking and feeling are balanced and poor sensing. I'm going toward INTJ over INFJ as you favored the more T specific answers over the general ones. INFJ is not far off though.

I don't know, to be honest. I'm always on the brink between INFP and ISFP. Someone from another site believes I could be an INFP, but I'm still not completely sure...

I'm a little confused about how to answer question 3. The ones that I'm more likely to gloss over I put as the least favored, and the ones that I'm not likely to gloss over I put as most favored. I wasn't sure if it should be that way or the other way around so I'm letting you know which way I did it.

Same with question 9. Most valued I put the one I'm most uncomfortable doing, and least valued is the one I'm most comfortable doing.

And 12. most favored I put what annoys me the most, and least favored I put what annoys me the least.

14 is what I'm most willing to do and least willing to do to achieve my best self.

So what am I, beloved guru?

Oh and for each function as you described it my preferences for each are Si>Se, Ne>Ni, Ti>Te, and Fi>Fe

Honestly, the scoring was a pain on this....it would be so much easier if the key was the test numbers & letters with the MBTI letter code next to it.

The Feeling questions sound too much like Extroverted Feeling. As an INxP, I get turned off by Extroverted Rational (ExxJ) attitudes (not the actual people...just the description of them :D ). But I come back as an NF, still.

My scores:

N - 7

A). reading too deep into things, lack attention to what currently matters.

D). idealistic and lofty. Overly moralistic. - sometimes this too

7: Being an onlooker at an event, which is the most common mental stirring...

B). focus on the present details that strike the senses and their impressions.
