INTJ here.

Pretty much everything in the profile fits me-- from being a quiet leader to being decisive to everything else listed in all the various INTJ profiles.

Someone in one of my classes said he was a "mastermind" (INTJ), but from what I read, I can't really see it. Maybe I'm missing something... because I don't think the two of us are alike at all.

I can relate to what you are going through. I did well in college during the Pre-reqs and then came nursing school. I too felt that one of the criterias to succeed was to "read your instructor". It does not work that way in RN school. The first semester is hell because this a time when you are transitioning from a college student to a nursing student. It is different but do-able. The bottom line is you have to have confidence in what you are learning so that the wrong answers or the not the best answers don't distract you. BTW..I was ENFJ;)

infj here.

i know someone said this before, but there seem to be a whole lot of infj's here. we are the rarest type, do we flock to nursing??:nurse:

I was wondering the exact same thing. I too am an INFJ. I took this test (or a similar one) about 9 years ago and scored the same thing. I was working as a substance abuse counselor at the time - a very appropriate career choice according to the INFJ profile.

The info. I read 9 years ago said that INFJs are the rarest types, comprising something like only 3% of the total population. And yet here are so many of us as nurses...interesting.

just came across this thread, looks like i'm an [color=olive]isfj (33, 1, 50, 56). now if i could just be an isfj who can get this caffeine out of my system and get to sleep! :uhoh3:
