FAQ
How accurate is the quick 12 Axes test?
It asks two balanced statements per axis, so it shows your direction well but each answer weighs more. Your top ideology usually matches the full 72-question test; individual axes can differ by 10–20 points.
Can I continue with the full test later?
Yes. The full test is separate and uses all six statements per axis, including the ones from the quick test. Your result page links to it.
Is it good for comparing with friends?
That's what it's for. Challenge links send friends to the quick test so the comparison takes three minutes, not ten.
