What was the personality type of Carl Jung according to the Jung and Briggs Myers Typology?

Folks, I have mentioned this several times. Ten or twelve years ago, the National Research Council reported that the Briggs Meyers test not only does not do what people are told it does, it also doesn't do what it was originally intended for, i.e., to help medical students pick out an area in which to specialize . Mrs. Briggs and her daughter in law Mrs. Meyers, thought it would help their young man to make a good choice. Jung himself denied the usefulness of such tests, calling them "Kinderspielen (childrens' games)".
