I've taken this test before (different sight though). I got the same result.
It should be noted that this test is not "quack" science but rather an actual working test designed to find out your personality. And that last link you gave discribes me to a T. It's scary how accurate it is.

a poem by my computer, Macintosh Vigilante
Macintosh amends a damned around the requested typewriter. Macintosh urges a scarce design. Macintosh postulates an autobiography. Macintosh tolls the solo variant. Why does a winter audience delay macintosh? The maker tosses macintosh. Beneath female suffers a double scum. How will a rat cube the heavier cricket? Macintosh calls a method. Can macintosh nest opposite the headache? Macintosh ties the wrong fairy. When can macintosh stem the land gang? Female aborts underneath macintosh. Inside macintosh waffles female. Next to macintosh worries a well.

If this is 3.3% of total population, then why am I the fourth person here with INTP?

That might be because we're almost all computer geeks posting on an anti-establishment (ie. Anti-MS) site.

I (and the test) happen to believe I am an INTP.  But the one certainty in psychological research is that nobody can judge themselves.  We seem incapable of knowing the true nature of our own personalities.  Have your sister or your girlfriend take the test for you - that will probably be a more accurate description of your true personality.

I'm INTP as well.

INTP is very common with computer nerds and I believe current society encourages it a lot more than previous generations.

I get 2 types;

Quote:
ISTJ - "Trustee". Decisiveness in practical affairs. Guardian of time- honored institutions. Dependable. 11.6% of total population.


Quote:
ISTJ

Planner Inspector: ISTJ

Theme is planning and monitoring, ensuring predictable quality. Thorough, systematic and careful. See discrepancies, omissions, and pitfalls. Talents lie in administrating and regulating. Dependable, realistic, and sensible. Want to conserve the resources of the organization, group, family or culture and persevere toward that goal. Thrive on planning ahead and being prepared. Like helping others through their roles as parent, supervisor, teammate, and community volunteer.


or, because I have a 50 - 50 in perceiving/Judging, I could be as well;

Quote:
ISTP - "Engineer". Values freedom of action and following interests and impulses. Independent, concise in speech, master of tools. 5.4% of total population.


Quote:
ISTP

Analyzer Operator: ISTP

Theme is action-driven problem solving. Talents lie in operating all kinds of tools and instruments and using frameworks for solving problems. Keen observers of the environment, they are a storehouse of data and facts relevant to analyzing and solving problems. Thrive on challenging situations and having the freedom to craft clever solutions and do whatever it takes to fix things and make them work. Take pride in their style and virtuosity, which they seem to effortlessly acquire.



Which both are accurate for me.
