Interesting!
You are an Interpersonal Thinker
Interpersonal thinkers:
* Like to think about other people, and try to understand them
* Recognise differences between individuals and appreciate that different people have different perspectives
* Make an effort to cultivate effective relationships with family, friends and colleagues
Like interpersonal thinkers, Leonardo had lots of friends and contacts, and was a popular figure at the Italian court. Other Interpersonal thinkers include
Winston Churchill, Mother Teresa, William Shakespeare
Careers which suit Interpersonal thinkers include
Politician, Psychologist, Nurse, Counsellor, Teacher
I'm a believer.

Musical thinkers:
-Tend to think in sounds, and may also think in rhythms and melodies
-Are sensitive to the sounds and rhythms of words as well as their meanings.
-Feel a strong connection between music and emotions
And I've always thought I had a way with words.
Careers which suit Musical Thinkers include
Musician, Music teacher, Sound engineer, Recording technician
I'm neglecting my talents.

Does the fact we both got the same result undermine your belief Mah?:laugh:

Tried the test again (using kathycf's solution) and the results are:
1) You are an Interpersonal Thinker
2) You are an Intrapersonal thinker
What the heck?
Do I have split personality disorder or something?
Must have given the site a hard time or something.

The quiz results suggest that I have a strong preference for two different styles of thinking. Personally, I don't consider them to be mutually exclusive at all, since I have a tendency think about other people (and their problems) analytically.
You are a Logical-Mathematical Thinker
Logical-Mathematical thinkers:
* Like to understand patterns and relationships between objects or actions
* Try to understand the world in terms of causes and effects
* Are good at thinking critically, and solving problems creatively
Like Logical-Mathematical thinkers, Leonardo based his theories on evidence rather than speculation.

No, if you look at the site, you will see that Leonardo da Vinci is being celebrated as the ideal Renaissance man, or in other words a person who epitomizes all styles of thinking. The more styles of thinking you can master, the "smarter" you are, if you want to look at it that way.
Your quiz results indicate that you are quite a "people person" who probably sees all of the world's activity as one big human drama, or something like that.
EDIT: By the way, we talked about
another quiz here a couple of years ago that tried to determine our relative preference for four different styles of reasoning. The idea is that people can use all four styles of thinking, but they use some styles more and some styles less.

I got two results as well, so I think it means there were two styles that fit you equally well, plus also what VonDondu says regarding mastering different styles.

Actually, it just means you scored an equal amount of points in two or more categories. I 'mastered' all nine styles of thinking by saying I wasn't interested in anything at all - i.e. by playing as dumb as possible and scoring zero points in every category.

I suspect that too. Some parts of the description does fit me, but not the job description. A politician? I'm not even interested in becoming one in the first place.

Existential thinkers:
* Like to spend time thinking about philosophical issues such as "What is the meaning of life?"
* Try to see beyond the 'here and now', and understand deeper meanings
* consider moral and ethical implications of problems as well as practical solutions

It's me alright. I'd through in a tad of Spatial but besides that its me. Oh and I've emboldened my uni course choices.

I got a combination of Logical-Mathematical Thinker and Interpersonal Thinker.
That is pretty much how i am at least the mathematical part

Spatial Thinkers:
Tend to think in pictures, and can develop good mental models of the physical world.
Think well in three dimensions
Have a flair for working with objects
one of the careers suited to this is mechanic... and i'm doing a mechanics course at school now, and i hope to get an apprenticeship when i leave school
pretty accurate

I've taken the test a couple of times and it turned out that I'm a musical and a spatial thinker. Since I play two instruments and always try to find some new stuff to tinker with, I can confirm that the test is pretty accurate.
