Interesting! I would not have expected J's to be as common as they appear to be at this point.
Quick primer: basically the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) divides personality types into 4 "one or the other" scales, for a total of 16 combinations: * I (introvert) vs. E (extravert): pretty self-explanatory. * S (sensing) vs. N (intuition): Sensors are more concrete and detail- oriented; iNtuitives are more big-picture oriented. * T (thinking) vs. F (feeling): Thinkers tend to be more objective, Feelers more subjective. Basically are you more of a head person or a heart person. * J (judging) vs. P (perceiving): Has nothing to do with being judgmental or perceptive. Judgers tend to be better with structure and schedules; Perceivers tend to be better with the lack thereof. So maybe the N means you're better at seeing the whole cube as a whole, and the J is great for the structured logic of the cube and planning ahead. As an S, too often I'm thinking, "oh cool! that square is orange!" and as a P: "I think I'll do this next. No, how about this. No, that...wait, what was I doing??" INTJ's often make great scientists, so it looks like the cube is right up their alley.
