INTJ here. I was "typed" by a certified MBTI practitioner. Below are my scores on the 4 dichotomies according to his test:
I/E: 100% I
N/S: 80% N
T/F: 88% T
J/P: 69% J
I'm glad you linked to the test on 16personalities.com because it's imo the best one on the Internet. I take the test on that website once a year to see how much my INTJ'ness has changed. Last time I took it (a month or 2 ago), I got these results:

I know quite a lot about the MBTI. I have successfully predicted which type some of my friends would get before I linked them to the test.

With regard to the validity of the MBTI, it's important to note that the MBTI has been proven ineffective for the management of employees. Nevertheless, the MBTI is a popular recruitment tool used by many companies worldwide. Furthermore, despite not being great in professional settings, the MBTI is an excellent tool for self-exploration, so the personal use of this assessment tool should definitely be encouraged.
Also, the Barnum/Forer effect should be taken into account when reading the descriptions of each type: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnum_effect
