*cough* One comment to make...
Did you know that those with IN personality types are in the "High-Achiever" range? Research has shown that most high achievers fall into this category type (INXX).
I'm not making this up, the professional instructor told us so when we took this test. Sure boosts your self-esteem if you are in that range.

Interesting... but I think there's more to it than that. Just from my personal experience, almost all overachievers are some sort of J type. I'm an INTP, and I'm a tremendous
underachiever. Almost all INTPs I know are the same way. I know for a fact that P types have more trouble with "achievement," especially in school, as it's harder for them to develop study skills and generally stay on top of their schoolwork.
I know a ton of overachieving INFJs, though. In fact, most of the overachievers I know
are INFJs.

Hmm... interesting, but indecision is more of a P/J thing, and Js are more decisive than Ps.
I'm wondering, too, why this forum attracts so many INFPs? It's pretty cool, if you ask me, because any N types are fairly rare in the world, but they're really interesting people. I'm thinking the I part is true of internet junkies in general, and the F part can be explained by the fact that most of us are female, but I don't know about the N or the P.
