Divergent Aptitude Test: Which Faction Are You?
Take our Divergent aptitude test! In Divergent, sixteen-year-olds take an aptitude test on a given day every year that sorts them into one of five factions.
The five factions are Abnegation, Amity, Candor, Dauntless, and Erudite, and each represent a valued virtue of humanity.
Based on this test, teens are allowed to either stay with their families within the faction where they grew up, or leave them forever to join the faction that suits them best.
In Divergent, a teenager named Tris receives inconclusive results from her aptitude test. She could potentially fit into the Abnegation, Erudite, or Dauntless factions. This makes her "divergent," but she must keep it a secret or risk being killed.

You often forget about your own needs because you are busy with the needs of not just friends and family, but also strangers. You are likely quiet and don't like to call attention to yourself.
Mostly E's
You belong to Dauntless. You are a thrill-seeker, and aren't scared of many of the things most people fear. You are likely physically fit, and adept at sports or martial arts. You also believe that problems should be faced head-on, and that many issues can be solved by force.
