You’ve made it to Hogwarts,

bought a wand from
Ollivander’s. What material is
at its core?
Phoenix Feather
Dragon Heartstring
Unicorn Hair
During the end-of-year exams,
you notice that one of your
classmates was using an
enchanted quill. You come top
of the class anyway, but they
are second. What do you do?
Tell the professor immediately
– cheating is wrong, no matter
what.
Nothing, but if I hadn't come
top of the class, I'd definitely tell
the professor.
Encourage the other student
to admit what they'd done to the
professor.
Give them a high five for
managing to sneak the quill into
the exam.
You would be most hurt if a
person called you...
Weak
Ignorant
Unkind
Boring

Stupefy!
Crucio!
It's your fifth year at
Hogwarts, and you've just
received a Howler from your
parents. What for?
Sneaking into the Forbidden
Forest at night on a dare.
Getting caught cheating in my
Divination O.W.L.
Being put in detention after I
was caught in the library after
hours.
Nothing! I'd never do anything
to warrant a Howler.
Which of these Dumbledore
quotations speaks to you?
"Pity the living, and above all,
those who live without love."
"Words are, in my not-so-
humble opinion, our most
inexhaustible source of magic."
"It matters not what someone
is born, but what they grow to
be."
"It does not do to dwell on
dreams and forget to live."
Which of these most
accurately describes your
relationship with your closest
friends?

the better!

information.
My ability to make new friends.
My ability to get what I want.
My ability to keep secrets.
The first Quidditch match of
the season is approaching,
and you can't wait to get
involved. What role are you
playing?
Seeker. I want the glory!
Chaser. I like to be involved,
and work as part of the team.
Beater. I like having all that
power.
I'll be in the crowd, making
sure supporter morale is high!
You're allowed a pet at
Hogwarts: an owl, a cat, or a
toad. Which do you bring?
Owl
Cat
Toad
Nothing. I can't be trusted to
look after a pet!
It's Saturday, you've finished
your homework, and you have
some free time. You decide to
spend some time away from
your common room. Where
do you go?
The Forbidden Forest
The library
The kitchens
The Room of Requirement

Mirror of Erised?
Myself, surrounded by riches.
Myself, surrounded by my
loving family and friends.
Myself, knowledgable above
all.
Myself, experiencing a
marvellous adventure.
Which of these magical
events would you most like to
experience?
The Triwizard Tournament
The Quidditch World Cup
The Yule Ball
Christmas at Hogwarts
You're having trouble
mastering a new spell, and
you've decided to ask for
help. Who do you go to?
My professor, of course.
My house ghost.
My smartest friend.
The library — I'll figure it out
myself.
Choose a Deathly Hallow.
The Elder Wand
The Resurrection Stone
The Cloak of Invisibility
Which path do you intend to
follow after leaving Hogwarts?
I'd join the Ministry – I want to
make a difference in the world.
I think I'd travel for a while
before committing to a career.
I'd settle down and start a
family as soon as possible!
I'd continue to work hard in
order to achieve as much success
as possible.
And finally: We know that the
Sorting Hat takes into
account your preferences. So
which Hogwarts house do you
feel you identify with most
closely?
Gryffindor
Hufflepuff
Ravenclaw
Slytherin
What’s Your Hogwarts House Percentage?
You Are 32% Slytherin, 31%
Gryffindor, 27% Ravenclaw,
and 10% Hufflepuff!
You are relentless in your pursuit of success,
making you a perfect fit for Slytherin, but your
willingness to take risks makes you somewhat
compatible with the typical traits of Gryffindor
house. People who don’t know you well are
often intimidated by your reserved
demeanour, and you have very few close
friends. You are loyal to few, and definitely
prioritise personal success over close
relationships.
Your slight compatibility with Ravenclaw house
hints at an appreciation for knowledge and
wisdom, though they are not priorities for you.

You Are ALL THE THINGS!
So, you're 27% Hufflepuff, 27% Gryffindor,
24% Ravenclaw, and 22% Slytherin! You
seem to be an almost perfect
combination of all four houses, which is
incredibly rare – you’re equal in your
intelligence, bravery, loyalty, and
ambition. As we know, though, the...
