myers-briggs and specialty?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Myers-Briggs has little to no scientific validity and most of personality testing has been rejected by the scientific community, despite continuing to be a workplace fad. There's a ton of citations speaking to this, but I think this article covers it well: Watch: Why the Myers-Briggs test is totally meaningless
 
what do you guys think? do certain myers-briggs personalities align with certain specialities?

Truth be told, nobody cares. I couldn't tell you one thing about Myers-Briggs except that it doesn't even enter my mind when working with colleagues in surgery or interviewing applicants for surgery/fellowship. Cheers.
 
huh, could you provide me with which PDs like Scorpios? Asking for a friend

Scorpio, you could be an exceptional internal medicine physician in a medium sized city, and would also make a fine anesthesiologist anywhere you choose. You might find yourself in conflict with Aries colleagues, especially pediatricians, but do not let this distract you from your tasks at hand. Unexpected news, or lack thereof, will make for an interesting holiday season. A loved one will rely on your wisdom and support in the new year.
 
Eh it's kind of a fair question to an extent.

Not in the sense of the actual specific letters/categories of mbti but there's probably some difference between very extraverted vs introverted personalities. More charismatic, outgoing people are possibly drawn more to certain specialties than others, some are more skewed by gender (granted that's not necessarily by choice), etc.

After all, the frat bro ortho stereotype had to come from somewhere lol

I hope you know this from SDN stalking and not just from my horoscope because this is quite accurate 😱
