THE CAVALIER DAILY -- Jan 24 -- Some tests pretend to be legitimate and might make you believe their results are valid and meaningful. The most common being Myers-Briggs which breaks your personality up into four categories. Despite these inadequacies, you can find many other semi-legitimate online personality tests. The Enneagram categorizes people into nine unique groups. The "Big Five" uses five dimensions instead of four. Each test offers a different way to categorize yourself and to see how you measure up to other people. The amount of reliable information these tests provide is highly debatable, but many people still enjoy them.

Mark Brooks: Myers Briggs actually has 16 character types based upon four main categories, and the Enneagram has 9 personality types based upon four categories. They are both, essentially, subsets of the Big Five test. Your comments please...
