I used to take this test every year ... I don't know how long it's been since I did it, but was curious how things might have changed since I moved to the UK, and as I've been MBTI-ing the 1911 Shore Party it seemed only fair to turn it on myself. If it was ever scientific, it can't be entirely so now, as they've reformatted it in a way that might subconsciously push your answer in a slightly different direction than the previous format, and I'm pretty sure there were 72 questions before. But it's as close as I'll get to consistency, so with a substantial margin or error in mind:

INTJ
Introvert(78%) iNtuitive(53%) Thinking(62%) Judging(66%)
You have strong preference of Introversion over Extraversion (78%)
You have moderate preference of Intuition over Sensing (53%)
You have distinct preference of Thinking over Feeling (62%)
You have distinct preference of Judging over Perceiving (66%)

Turns out I'm no longer 100% introverted! Heavens to Betsy! Still quite definitively up the INTJ rabbit hole, but possibly moving slightly into the more healthy central cloud ...

Here's mine:

INFJ
Introvert(12%) iNtuitive(9%) Feeling(25%) Judging(3%)
You have slight preference of Introversion over Extraversion (12%)
You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (9%)
You have moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (25%)
You have marginal or no preference of Judging over Perceiving (3%)

One of the things I don't like about this test is that it treats thinking like it's the opposite of feeling. I think it's very possible to be reasonable and analytical while still being aware of/honoring your emotions.

Thinking and feeling can totally go hand in hand – I think the test is trying to get at which one you lean on more. If you've got weight firmly planted on both feet you'd get a 0 and be a healthy balanced individual – being 100% feeling with no rational perspective is no good, but so is not giving any space or validity to your or others' emotions. Having feelings and acknowledging them but also being able to think about them is a good place to be!
