I have done the career test linked from Zhongyi's blog. It's based on your colour preference, which I find quit interesting as I have never come across this kind of test. Anyway here is the link if anyone is interested and the results for my test is below. By the way, I find it quite interesting but I still think being a researcher is too boring for me.
