I just did this BBC Personality test where they have simplified the MBTI and have a slighty different take on the S / N area. They have called it facts versus ideas.

Based on this test I am a ISTP!!

I think this test innaccurate and wondered how others come out. I say that because even though I am an ideas person (N) I also love facts and research as it is the basis of ideas and expanding and taking them new places. Which is why I come out S in the BBC interpretation of MBTI.
What do you think?

What do you think? It sounds like they missed the point with the N/T. The N allows you to see possibilities and the big picture, but the T allows you to view them objectively. Consequently, the relationship between the N and the T are apparently terribly missed in the BBC interpretation.

Dont trust the news people for intellectual accuracy.

I think it is as accurate as it is interpreted - it must match the profile.
