Just curious to ask everyone, but has anyone taken a personality test to find that Dentistry was a top pick in career choice among your own personality type?

I remember taking my first personality test over 2 years ago and getting ESFJ. Dentistry was one of the most popular career choices, along with similar medical/caregiver fields. It was one big realization to me at the time that helped me consolidate my choice to go into dentistry!

Since then, I have taken 2 more, with a little over a year in between each. I remember getting ESFJ a second time and for the third, I got ENFJ.

If you have never taken a personality test, I would definitely recommend to do so. I really think they can be spot on and, answering honestly, you will probably agree with most everything that is generally true to that specific personality type.

Never took one. I'm a reserved and introverted guy...but I like to think I'm not socially awkward. I still like dentistry.

My own dentist is pretty reserved. Soft-spoken guy. Great dentist.

I don't know if dentistry typically attracts the social butterflies (I'm assuming it does, like medicine). I'm fine being a bit quieter than my classmates though.

I've taken the personality test over three times on separate occasions, and I've always ended up being ISFJ. It's pretty interesting! The descriptions are scarily accurate.

Lol I think I've taken it and got something similar to you, but I never used it to pick dentistry as a career. Guess everything just worked out

I got INTP. One website says likely jobs would be "independent scientist" and "college professor" etc. It is interesting to look at the results.

All of the ones I took in high school that we're related to careers always suggested being a physician. Close enough.

INTP here. A website says things like "independent scientist" and "college professor" and stuff. Interesting.

Also got INTP

INFJ-T (introversion, intuition, feeling, judging - turbulent)

I took it through www.16personalities.com at the recommendation of a friend and couldn't believe how spot on the description was.
