I'll bet I'm in Ravenclaw because I'm too smart to bother answering 112 questions. :rolleyes:

And yes, I love the series, but not enough to suffer that sort of tedium.
 
I belong to the Delta House.
 
After going through the questionaire it said I belong to the Lamda Lamda Lamda House.

I got Hufflepuff with a score of 83% compatible.
My scores for the other houses were:
Gryffindor: 82%
Ravenclaw: 80%
Slytherin: 17%

Looks like I'd have given the sorting hat some difficulty choosing. :biggrin:
 
Mmm Ravenclaw for me

Ravenclaw : 92
Slytherin : 54
Gryffendor : 88
Hufflepuf : 56

Weird. Similar test usually tie me between Ravenclaw and Slytherin
 
Expertise and smarts, not jock virtues, are what I groove on. The hat would never put me anywhere but Ravenclaw.

Added: I wrote the above before I took the test. My test scores were Gryffindore 82, Ravenclaw 86, Hufflepuff 77, Slitherin 14. So apparently I have higher regard for "jock virtues" than I thought!

Equal parts Ravenclaw & Griffindor. Not that this can mean anything - that's currently the worst survey I've ever taken. Every line that has multiple clauses has internal inconsistencies.

Yeah...there was one with a parenthetical note...the one that asks if you're smart, then in parentheses says something like "even if this isn't reflected in tests or grades"...so, if it is reflected in tests and grades, do you disagree, or if it isn't, then is it really a question on how well you've deluded yourself into thinking you're smart when you aren't? :confused: It's scary that the site claims it's being used for real research. I don't expect internal consistency on a survey that's just for fun, but if it's a real survey for real analysis, that's a BIG problem. But it's a good illustration of how the way a survey question is asked can affect the type of responses given. The survey writer probably has a future career writing public opinion polls for election years. :biggrin:
