How to Get SBTI SOLO (The Isolated One) on the Test

Want to land the The Isolated One type on your SBTI result? Here's exactly which traits to lean into, what kinds of answers produce SOLO, and what to avoid. Works for anyone trying to get SOLO deliberately — or avoid it.

The Short Answer

To score SOLO, you likely answered questions indicating a preference for independence, skepticism towards others, and a tendency to rely on yourself. You probably avoided answers that expressed vulnerability or a strong desire for social connection.

Step 1: Emphasize these core traits

The SBTI test maps your answers across 15 dimensions. To get SOLO, your responses should consistently signal:

  • 1
    Independent
  • 2
    Observant
  • 3
    Defensive
  • 4
    Analytical
  • 5
    Private
  • 6
    Resourceful

Step 2: Answer patterns to aim for

You're the friend everyone asks for advice, but rarely sees socially.

Your default response to invitations is 'maybe,' which really means 'probably not.'

You have a carefully curated online persona that hides your true feelings.

You're secretly a softie, but would rather die than admit it.

You excel in situations where you can work independently.

You've perfected the art of the polite but firm 'leave me alone' expression.

Step 3: What to avoid

If you keep ending up on LOVE-R / GOGO instead of SOLO, your answers are tilting toward those archetypes. Specifically avoid:

  • Over-emphasizing difficulty trusting
  • Over-emphasizing emotional detachment
  • Over-emphasizing social isolation
  • Over-emphasizing overly critical
  • Over-emphasizing resistant to help
  • Over-emphasizing fear of vulnerability

Is it OK to game the SBTI test?

SBTI is entertainment, not a clinical assessment. Plenty of people retake it to see different results, unlock the hidden DRUNK type, or land the label their friends got. There's no ethical issue with steering your answers — the test makers built it as a meme, not a diagnostic. Just remember: the most interesting result is usually the one you get when you answer honestly first time.
