By the way, for the last question, the Myers-Briggs typology test is here: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp

Its a system of typing personalities based on the theories of Jung. It consists of four "sliders", which produce 16 four letter codes that conform to the Jungian personality types.

Extroversion (E) -- Introversion (I)
Intuition (N) -- Sensing (S)
Thinking (T) -- Feeling (F)
Judgement (J) -- Perception (P)

Its widely used as a business tool to predict how team members will act towards each other, amongst other things.

Something about you that continually surprises people when they hear it: That I am missing a finger. That I jumped out of a perfectly good airplane (I guess I don't come across as that adventurous). That I graduated high school with 46 hours of college credit, including the full calculus progression.
Where you want to be in 5 years: I want to have at least a masters, possibly a doctorate, in mechanical or aerospace engineering. I hope to be working for NASA or a major aerospace company. One day I will go to space, probably as a tourist.
Myers-Briggs Personality: INTP, just like Socrates, Rene Descartes, Blaise Pascal, Sir Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein. Given my interests and aptitudes, this doesn't surprise me at all. The descriptions also describe me perfectly.
