MMGT Admissions Exam Prep Course: Dark Tetrad Personalities

The dark tetrad is an evolution of the dark triad: narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism. Now added to this list is sadism. These four traits are believed to be the core of humanity's dark side. Are you ready to be mind-blown and learn about humanity's dark side? What do you think of making a dark tetrad by adding sadism? Was it necessary? Have you experienced anyone like this? Other "dark" traits have also been suggested. Can you think of any traits that might have been missed?
