Make universities that use MBTI clarify that it's not scientifically valid.

What the petition asks
MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicators) is being used in university careers offices without any explanation that it is not a scientifically valid test. It's the workplace equivalent of a buzzfeed test and universities using it should make that clear.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
This is a decision for universities, not the UK Government or Parliament.
