The model

The Enneagram maps nine core personality types, each with two possible wings, the neighbouring type that adds its own flavour. This test finds your main type and wing in plain, easy language, and shows your full profile across all nine types.

The dimensions

What each score describes

Your report gives a separate score for each of these, on a 0–100 scale. They are read together, not ranked against each other.

Type 1: The Perfectionist 01

Type 1: The Perfectionist

Principled, orderly, and driven to do what is right.

A lower score below 40

You are not mainly a Perfectionist. You accept small mistakes and choose what matters most. Rules guide you without taking over your day.

A middling score 40–70

You care about doing things well and following clear standards. When work feels careless, you can feel upset, but you can also adjust your view.

A higher score above 70

You hold yourself to high standards and want things done properly. Others may see you as reliable, while you may spend too long correcting details.

What this is not

These scores describe patterns in how you answered, not a diagnosis. The Free Enneagram Test is built for self-reflection: it is not a clinical instrument, it does not detect any condition, and no score on it is a medical result. If something in your report worries you, that is a conversation to have with a professional, not with a website.
