: For the record, I don't think that test is a very good
one. When I took it, I scored equally on four and five.
I do have a four wing, but it isn't that strong. I would
suggest taking other tests- also just really studying the
points. I found Palmer's (in The Enneagram:Understanding
Yourself and the Others in Your Life) personal testimonies particularly
resonant when I was first introduced to the enneagram.The
test on this site is too short to be accurate. Plus, I
think that reading about how others react to stress,
happiness, authority, etc. and comparing your own experience
is the best way. Although I have had nine friends who had
a really tough time figuring out their point, I guess
because they have a sort of outwardly focused attention
style.
