I am much satisfied with the result of this test and I am not at all surprised at the results. The scores of each of the segments are very satisfactory for me especially in openness and agreeableness. For me it has accurately captures my personality. I am already aware of the fact that I cannot open up to anyone, it takes a lot time. However I want to learn more and it is a sign of openness. Similarly, I cannot agree with others just because he or she is my friends. But I am very affectionate which indicates agreeableness.
