What are your Big Five and various other tests? (read first post)
metro.:
All of these are best fit.
They're standardized tests after all...
rarely_upset:
Extraversion: 3.2 (.1 < average)
Agreeableness: 3.4 (.4 < average)
Conscientiousness: 1.8 (1.9 < average) >_>
Neuroticism: 4.0 (1.3 > average)
Openness: 4.1 (1.0 > average)
This test is most likely inaccurate; people will answer how they want to be instead of how they are. I tried my best to be brutally honest with myself, though. The questions about how often I got upset were amusing.
I'm an ENFP according to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (which my teachers stressed was not a test).

The questions are too short and could be interpreted in different ways depending on context, not to mention most of the questions were in the test at least twice, just reworded a bit. Like "I don't talk much" and "I talk a lot" hehe. Perhaps it was an intention, but you can afford to do such a thing seriously only in tests with hunderths of questions, to have the desirable effect on tested subject :P

It's standard for psychometric testes to ask the same question twice in different words. It's a way to check if the testee is giving consistent answers.

I'm well aware of that, but as I said, it bears meaning in long, complex tests, not like...
1. Do you like cake?
2. Do you not like cake?
3. Don't you like cake?
You first have to set the mind of tested subject on other topics, preferably make him forget the question was asked already. Of course, if you put complex test on the net, noone will answer it. In the world of the internetz, even 5 minutes is pushing it.

The fact that I was not sure about my first answer while answering the repeated questions shows that they have some relevance.

Let me insult your memory.
Your memory is real bad and you get confused easily.
