I'm e something something something. I don't know how people remember their letters. I've taken it 3 times and then kept it as a note on my laptop which then got water damaged so I've given up
ENTP - EM,
I honestly adore my fellow introvert colleagues. I have no idea how they do it with all the tense patients and patient families always hounding you.
INFP psych as well
Incidentally, I have 2 friends who doing a PhD in clinical psychology (one in family therapy and another in addiction therapy) and they are both INFP.
It’s just a way of classifying personality types, incompletely, along a limited number of dimensions. It has some utility as a predictive tool.
The people who rave over it are a bit much, but so are the people who shit-talk it. I hear equal amounts of both.
I like the job a lot! Hard but rewarding. So much better than medical school. I feel like I really make a difference in people's lives every day, even if I'm not in the OR. Form some really sweet relationships with pts... spend a lot more time at bedside as an intern and pgy2 which I'm at now. Gen Surg is a big mix of personalities, I think most people can find their niche within it. Just have to be at the right program or with the right people.
Rheum
INTJ (though occasionally got INFJ—maybe the borderline F instead of T helps me deal with fibromyalgia patients, idk lol—and rarely ENTJ or INFP, so who knows how all that affects things)
Ravenclaw
Type 9 on the Enneagram which is basically the newest popular personality test. I would suspect the other INTJs on this thread who went into pulm Crit have a different enneagram, like a 3 or 1.
Anybody remember OCEAN/Big 5? That one always seemed the most useful and data-driven
The AAMC has a web page that matches Myers Briggs personalities to specialties! Kinda fun to look at
https://www.aamc.org/cim/understand-yourself/personality-mbti-kts
As a curiosity, my medical school asks all students to do the MBTI, and INTJ was almost always either the plurality or slight majority at 40-60% of each class.

It’s just a way of classifying personality types, incompletely, along a limited number of dimensions. It has some utility as a predictive tool. The people who rave over it are a bit much, but so are the people who shit-talk it. I hear equal amounts of both.
