Figuring out your type is a mystery, and what you're looking for are clues.
The best a personality type test or cognitive functions test can do is provide clues. They are self-tests and so the accuracy depends on the person taking them. The quality of the clues you end up with depends on how well you know yourself, or how honest you are with yourself.
Fortunately, even if your result is somewhat inconclusive or contradictory, it is very unlikely that your result is COMPLETELY off. There will still be some useful clues.
So, although nothing is conclusive here, you've provided some useful information.
Since I can't be certain about any of this, I'm going to talk about probabilities (based on the information you've given), and use the term "most likely" a lot.
First let's start with your cognitive functions test result.
Important question #1: Didn't it tell you what your type most likely is? If you can remember that, it would be very helpful.
You scored highest on Ne, so that is most likely your Dominant function.
It was a draw between Fi and Ti for the second function. If you combine that with the likelihood of your being Dominant Ne, you are most likely ENTP or ENFP. (Dom Ne+Sec Ti = ENTP ; Dom Ne+Sec Fi = ENFP)
The fact that the rest of your functions seem randomly ordered does NOT, in my opinion, make the result invalid. It is still an important clue in figuring out your type.
I think the fact that you scored higher on Fe than Te could also indicate that your Tertiary function is Fe, which would make you more likely an ENTP than ENFP---not conclusive of course, but it IS another clue.
On limitations and overcoming it… I use them as a tool for self-improvement. Hmm… how should I put this...? I do not like being ‘stagnant’ (mentally), I need progress in self and also progress within my friends. Progress in self is carried out by understanding my limitations and weaknesses and then trying to implement ‘solutions’ to fix them. When a life event presents opportunities to invoke a change in self (any aspects), I would grab that opportunity and let the event take its course and experience it… yeah all life events (small & big ones) are said to present opportunities, I seek for change and constant improvement.
As for friends … I want them to be also seeking for change too. People are like raw crystals to me, they have the potential to become beautiful and when it comes to friends, I want to witness their 'beauty'… but it gets frustrating when they don’t want to or tells me that they are fine as they are or they will get there eventually through life experiences (because the speed at which they are going is quite slow)
In the comments above you emphasized change and constant improvement (in self and others)a lot, a distaste for mental stagnation, and some impatience with the slow pace of others.
This does not mean you are Dom Ne per se (there could be a number of explanations for this), but it is at least consistent with Dom Ne, and certainly doesn't contradict it.
Dom Ne's constantly scan the environment for possibilities, potentialities, etc. and when they are ready to do something with the info they've gathered, become easily frustrated with the slow pace of others.
At this point, I think you are ENTP or ENFP.
I think the fact that you relate to the INFP profile so much is an important clue, as far as tipping the balance in the direction of ENFP, but I would still search it out more.
Important question #2:
Without thinking too hard about it, what's your gut instinct about whether you're Introvert or Extravert?
It may or may not be important in the long run, but it would be helpful for me to factor that in.
Important question#3:
If someone proposed a new rule, policy, procedure, or law, would your
first thought be
"Is there a good rationale behind it/Is it logical?" or
"How will this effect people/How will they feel about it?".
I realize this may be a vague question.
Maybe both are equally important to you, but for the purposes of figuring out your type, try to think of which one would win out by even 1 point. Try to determine which one would be your FIRST thought.
Important question #4:
In your efforts to help people improve themselves, is your
primary goal to help them become more
COMPETENT/KNOWLEDGEABLE or
HAPPY WITH THEMSELVES/PERSONALLY FULFILLED?
Again, both may be equally important to you, but try to think of which one is even SLIGHTLY more important.
I hope you find this post helpful.
It's been fun for me, and I look forward to your responses.
