8 Personality Quizzes You’ll Want to Explore, From Professional Insights to Pop Culture

I have a soft spot for personality quizzes. Perhaps it’s because I’m a bit self-absorbed—okay, let’s be honest, that’s probably the main reason. It’s intriguing to see how accurate (or wildly off-base) the results can be. I’m particularly fond of the more in-depth assessments, rich in research and psychological theory, such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and the Enneagram, as well as the one about love languages.

I even indulge in the lighter quizzes on BuzzFeed, like discovering which BTS member I resemble, which often leads me into an existential crisis debating whether I prefer to be matched with my fave (spoiler: SUGA) or his best friend. Tough choices! (Let’s be real: they’re all my soulmates!)

Whenever I connect with new folks in group chats or on platforms like Clubhouse, it feels reminiscent of those college days where we’d forward each other endless chain emails and request everyone to fill out long profiles. Oh? Just me? Am I the only one who did that in the ’90s? Anyway, instead of tedious emails reserved for work, we now casually ask new friends to take personality tests—because how else can we quickly categorize people into neat little boxes? It’s like astrology but rooted in pseudoscience, while astrology draws from ancient stars and beliefs. Count me in!

Professional Personality Assessments

These tests are the more “official” personality evaluations, often employed for job candidate screenings or utilized by mental health professionals. You’ve likely encountered them in various circles, as they’ve woven themselves into our cultural fabric.

  1. Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
    One of the most well-known personality assessments, the MBTI was developed by a mother-daughter duo (Kathleen and her daughter, Lydia) based on Carl Jung’s theories. The MBTI categorizes individuals into 16 distinct personalities, typically referenced by a series of letters such as “ISFJ” (the best type—yes, it’s mine). It’s my personal favorite since it aligns closely with my worldview.
  2. Enneagram
    The Enneagram is increasingly popular in social circles, often introduced when someone mentions their number and inquires about yours (not your phone number, just to clarify). It features nine personality types, with individuals usually identified by one primary type, although they may exhibit traits from others. (Ennea means nine in Greek.) Personally, I’m not a fan—it’s given me various results over the years depending on my mood—but it has a loyal following.
  3. CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) Test
    Rather than assessing personality, this test identifies your top strengths. The premise is that you should focus on your strengths rather than your weaknesses. I absolutely adore this assessment! The results make me feel truly understood. While it’s a paid service and the most accurate version is likely the premium one, there are some free alternatives. Many life and career coaches align their practices with this test, and I’ve found it incredibly beneficial.

Pop-Culture Personality Quizzes

Alright, enough with the “serious” personality tests. Now let’s dive into the fun stuff—like which Hogwarts house you belong to!

  1. Harry Potter Hogwarts House Sorting Hat
    Do I really need to explain this one? If you’ve somehow missed it, this quiz is set in the Harry Potter universe created by J.K. Rowling. Hogwarts, the magical school for wizards, has four houses, each with its own personality traits. Naturally, Ravenclaw reigns supreme.
  2. Dungeons and Dragons Alignment Test
    In the world of Dungeons and Dragons, characters are classified based on moral alignments related to power, ethics, and government. This quiz helps you determine where you fit among the nine alignments. Are you chaotic evil or lawful good? Find out!
  3. Pantone Color Test
    Stuck in the RGB or CMYK world of colors? Time to catch up! Pantone colors are hyper-specific and play a huge role in branding and even government terminology. This quiz reveals which Pantone color you would embody—how scientific!

Quizzes on Sexuality

Let’s get candid—the quizzes that delve into your sexual preferences are what many are curious about. Here are two that might pique your interest.

  1. Rice Purity Test
    Let’s acknowledge that the idea of “purity” can be outdated and problematic. Originally created by male students at Rice University in 1924, this test has been updated for inclusivity. Despite its historical context, it’s fun to see how you measure up. The lower your score, the less “wholesome” you are. Rumor has it you can even end up with a negative score!
  2. BDSM Test
    Even if BDSM isn’t your thing, this test is insightful. It prompts you to consider your own kinks and boundaries. Ultimately, BDSM is rooted in consent, and understanding your preferences never hurts. Plus, it’s a great way to learn more about your sexual inclinations.
