What do you think of this enneagram test?

Enneagram Central

I usually get 4 or 5 or 6 as a result, but here I got 8! which is somewhat incredible..... a friend of mine who is a 9 for sure always gets a 4 here .... how about you? does it confirm your type, or does it also suggest something weird?



I actually liked the way of questioning, though....

Hmm.... Other tests say I'm like 2 or 9, and usually 4 is on the third place, but this one says I'm a total 4... description is so true! I guess my combination is 294 then

I am more sensitive than most people, that's why I probably experience more pain than most. It seems to me that a lot of people just skim over life. The pain may be worth it, though, I enjoy beauty so much. It seems I can see beauty where others can't. this often sets me apart from others, I feel sort of different from ordinary people. My tastes seem more refined and I place a higher value on artistic sensitivity than many of my friends. I often have trouble in relationships because of my sensitivity. They start out fine, but then little things go wrong. It seems like I can never have the perfect relationship I'm always looking for.

7 over here. i usually test 7 or 8. I also liked the questions.

Style Five

Descartes had it right. "I think, therefore I am." What I think is important to me. I may have to have more privacy than others, but a person needs some time alone to think clearly about life. I'm a keen observer of life. I understand what is really going on. I think I'd sooner watch than participate in a lot of things. When I'm alone I think more clearly and objectively than most people. I don't get so emotional when I make my judgments and decisions. I like to plan things before they happen and then replay them in my mind. Then I know what I really think and feel about what happened.

I got type three? hmm... I might answered the questions incorrectly lol...

Style Three


I like the Army slogan, "Be all you can be." I think it is important to succeed at what you try to do. I work hard, I play by the rules, usually (unless they're unfair) and I love to compete. I think competition brings out the best in us and I love to be Number One. I'm a positive, up-beat person with lots of energy. I make things happen and I don't mind if others recognize that. I may work a little too hard at times because it is hard to make life work on all fronts, but a little stress doesn't hurt anyone. Success doesn't always come cheap and you have to be willing to pay the price. I don't make the rules of life, but I make the most of them. I can make a system work.

The other tests always give me 8 firstly, 5 secondly. This one gave me:

Style Four

Well it identified my type correctly I guess.

The same thing happened to me. I put a lot of "seldom"s on those type 3 questions and that is what I got as a result. I think the results calculating must be messed up somehow.

The questions were somewhat interesting though.

1 here and 1 is what I am so I accept it. I wish whoever programmed it would have used radio buttons instead of checkboxes for the input as it would be so much better that way to know that only one answer for each is appropriate.
