Jedi Knight or Sith Lord?

I have been a big fan of the Star Wars films ever since I first viewed them. For this post, I created a simple test, for fun, to help an individual classify themselves as a Sith Lord or Jedi Knight based on key responses to personality questions. For each question below, score yourself on a scale of 1 to 3 according to how much either option applies to you. A 1 or 3 means you fall into one or the other extreme. A 2 is right in the middle. If you cannot decide, don't understand the question, or feel that the question doesn't apply to you in either way, score your answer 2. Add up your total score to see which type of Star Wars character you are.


  1. If you came across a dangerous wild animal caught in a trap, would you be more likely to set it free (1) or or kill it? (3) _____
  2. Do you spend more time thinking about the nice things you have (1) or how you can acquire more nice things? (3) _____
  3. Are you more likely to hurt yourself a little to help others a lot (1) or hurt others a little to help yourself a lot? (3) _____
  4. If you were shipwrecked with a fellow castaway, would you share your last loaf of bread (1) or secretly keep it for yourself? (3) _____
  5. If someone you loved was dying from a terminal illness but you couldn't afford the cure, would you break the law and steal the medicine (3) or spend as much time as you could with your loved one before they passed away? (1) _____
  6. If you wanted to get through a locked door, would you be more likely to pick the lock (1) or break down the door? (3) _____
  7. Do you have more fun when you're in control (3) or when you go with the flow? (1) _____
  8. A crazy man walks into the same restaurant your dining at. He starts shooting random people. Are you more likely to run for cover (3) or attempt to disarm the man? (1) _____
  9. If someone just killed one of your family members, would you give that person the death penalty (3) or lock them away for life? (1) _____
  10. Someone just deeply insulted you. Are you more likely to confront the individual (3) or to ignore what was said? (1) _____

How to read your total score:

A score from 10 to 19 indicates you are Jedi Knight. May the Force be with you!

A score of 20 means you are neutral. Your judgment is clouded by confusion. Be wary of the choices you make. They will either bring you balance or leave you in darkness.

A score from 21 to 30 indicates you are a Sith Lord. Henceforth, you shall be known as Darth ________.
