Deep inside every person with a soul (or a piece of
a soul) is the desire to know which Hogwarts
house they belong in. But how can you distill an
entire personality into just one of four houses?
Seems impossible.

You contain multitudes, and you deserve a Sorting
Hat quiz that recognizes that. Which is why this
quiz won't just tell you which house you'd be in,
it'll also gives you what exact percentage you are
from each house.

You might never attend Hogwarts yourself, but this is crucial information for
any self-respecting person to have. So start answering questions!

You’ve made it to Hogwarts, which means you’ve
already 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
You're locked in a duel with a skilled opponent. They
fire an unknown spell at you, and you shout…
Expelliarmus!
Protego!
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?
I love surrounding myself with people – the more friends I
have, the better!
I have a few very close friends that I would trust with my
life.
I tend to be wary around new people, so don't make new
friends often.
I find myself becoming friends with people who can help
me to succeed.
Which of your skills are you most proud of?
My ability to absorb new 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
What would you see in the 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% Gryffindor, 31% Ravenclaw, 24%
Slytherin, and 13% Hufflepuff!
Just like Hermione Granger, you were ultimately placed in Gryffindor, but the
Sorting Hat seriously considered putting you in Ravenclaw. You are a natural born
leader, often taking control of the reins from others whose recklessness or
dedication to facts and knowledge clouds their judgment. You are intelligent, but
acknowledge that there are more important things in life, and therefore aim to use
your intelligence and determination to fight for what you believe to be right.
Your slight compatibility with Slytherin house suggests a determination to
succeed, though not at the expense of traits from your more dominant houses.
