I know all this is in jest anyway, but I'd just like to say that
"personality" tests like these cannot by definition work, since you
can't be sure that the person taking the test is giving the right answer
(not just falsehoods, I mean they might have the wrong idea about
themselves). It's like the deal with the IQ test, only worse. 

In the spirit of the discussion, however, I went and did the test a few
months ago. I was a Teacher, believe it or not. And of course, I'm
pretty sure that the answers I gave were based on my opinion of myself,
and not probably the correct answers. Not that you CAN have the correct
answers to these things.

You know if I'm having a discussion like this at university this is
normally the point at which I start using "intellectual" as an insult.
