About This Quiz

Harry Potter is one of the most popular and transformative book and movie series of an entire generation. You laughed. You cried. You hated characters and you loved them, and sometimes that was all the same character. What these stories brought to the world was, yes, a little bit of magic, but they brought lessons, too. They taught those who read them to reach for the stars no matter the obstacle, trust your friends because they'll always be there for you, and if an adult is keeping something from you, there might be a good reason. since there were so many books, there was plenty of opportunity to feel a special connection with a particular one.

Maybe you picked the house you felt you belonged in and associated yourself with another member of that house. Maybe you went with one of the dynamic trio, Harry, Ron or Hermione because they were seemingly the ones who were the most important to the story. These characters also find themselves in some pretty serious conversations just as much as they're in situations that celebrate their friendship and accomplishments. Which character are you really? We'll reveal it to you if you react to these Harry Potter situations!

Would you use the invisibility cloak to roam around the halls at night, like Harry and Ron do, even though it's not allowed?

That was just cruel.

How dare she?!
She'll get what's coming to her.

Sometimes people need to learn things the hard way.

Professor Umbridge was basically the worst. Were you afraid Hogwarts would crumble from all the new rule plaques she was having nailed into the stone?

Totally differently

She should have been killed back.

Maybe she did the right thing.

It was all part of his plan.

He was doing what was best for the student.

Every single time

How could I not?
It gets me every time.

I don't cry, but it's still a really powerful moment.
