Personality tests can help individuals identify their strengths, weaknesses, and gain greater self-awareness. There are many options available, such as Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (also known as MBTI or 16 personalities), Big Five, DISC Assessment, Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI), StrengthsFinder Assessment (CliftonStrengths) or HEXACO Personality Inventory. While every personality system has its strengths and limitations, the Enneagram personality test has proven to be most useful for many people. The Enneagram test not only accurately describes a person’s behavior but also uncovers the deeper motivation and beliefs. Unlike many other personality systems that can be static, the Enneagram acknowledges that people change over time and that one may express their personality in healthier or less healthy ways under different conditions.

Most freely available Enneagram tests achieve only a 50-80% accuracy levels. However Personality Path’s test stands out, since it is the first dynamic personality test that fully leverages big data and AI to predict a person’s personality.

Most Enneagram tests take between 36 to 180 questions. Typically the less questions a test uses, the less accurate it is. However Personality Path’s Enneagram test is the first fully dynamic Enneagram test that significantly reduces the number of questions without having to sacrifice on accuracy. Depending on your answers, you will answer between 45 to 93 questions. Which is, on average, between 30%-50% faster than other comparable Enneagram tests you find online that often aren’t free.
It will take you between 9 and 15 minutes to finish all questions of the Enneagram personality quiz, but for most of our users, our data say it takes them less than 12 minutes.
Any personality test, no matter what it promises you, can never reach 100% accuracy. Since a personality test is trying to assess a person’s inner world, it is dependent on how well the person taking the test knows herself and how open and honest she is about it. Personality Path’s personality test takes this into account and has implemented measures to ensure accuracy and reliability using the best available research and technology together in an adaptive and flexible testing system.
There are three ways how you can find your Enneagram type.
The quickest and most accurate way to know what Enneagram you are is to take the Personality Path Enneagram test, the most accurate, freely available test option you find on this page. To determine your personality type using our test we recommend the following: first, when taking the test, think about your life in broad terms. Don’t confine yourself to your work environment or your family life, but be as general as possible. Secondly, think of yourself how you have been behaving in your early twenties, rather than how you behave now.
Another way to identify your Enneagram type is to read through the type descriptions for all 9 Enneagram types (either on this website or in one of our recommended book) and by learning about all Enneagram personality types. However this method has its limitations as for many people it only helps them narrow it down to their 2-3 most likely Enneatypes.
As for some people it is harder to find the answer to “What’s my Enneagram type?”, we have created a comprehensive guide on how to find the definite answer to “What Enneagram type am I?” and a section on common mistypings for each Enneagram type.
