Are you wondering whether you might be a Type Two? Here is another free, in-depth test made specifically for Enneagram Type Two. You can use it as an additional Enneagram test or as a simple checklist of Type Two traits.
Check all the statements that resonate with you. If you check fewer than 50 statements, it’s unlikely that you’re a Type Two. Checking only a few statements doesn’t automatically make you a Type Two, as any type may relate to some of these statements. However, if you check many statements, especially 70 or more, it becomes more likely that you belong to this Enneagram type.
You can also refer to the Enneagram Type Two profile if you have any doubts.
