Great question. I personally think Myers Briggs is pointless. I think there's validity to the depression, autism, diagnostic tests. They can be used as a tool to help oneself. IQ test I have mixed feelings about. People get too into it and it is not the best predictor of success or happiness imo. And ppl treat it like it is.
