How Well Do You Know Me?

How it works

1. 1

   Start your quiz

   You'll get 12 questions about you: your music, your opinions, the things that annoy you. No account needed.

2. 2

   Write the possible answers

   For each question, write two to five answers your friend might pick. Only one of them is true.

3. 3

   Mark the real one

   Pick the answer that's actually you. Once you share the quiz, your answers are locked in.

4. 4

   Send your private link

   Add your name and send the link to one friend. They see your answer choices, not which one you picked.

5. 5

   See how well they know you

   When they've finished guessing, you both see how many of the 12 they got right.

The 12 questions

Every quiz uses these questions, in this order. The answers are yours to write, so no two quizzes are the same.

    What's something you could mention and immediately know I'd have an opinion about?

Writing answers that are fair but tricky

The questions are fixed, so the fun is in the answers you write. A few things that make a quiz worth guessing:

• Be specific

  “A 2009 pop-punk song” is harder to guess than “Music”, and a lot more fun to get right.

• Write believable decoys

  The best wrong answers are ones you could plausibly have picked. Your friend should have to think.

• Use the full five when you can

  Two choices give your friend a coin flip. Four or five make a right guess mean something.

• Keep it about you

  Write the answer you'd actually give today, not the one you think sounds best.

What the score means

Your friend's result counts how many of your 12 answers they guessed right, then sums it up in one line. From the best result to the worst:

• You basically live in my head.
• Okay, you know me pretty well.
• We might need to hang out more.
• Do you even know me? 😂

It's a game, not a friendship rating. A low score usually just means you have more stories to tell each other.

Who to send it to

• Your best friend

  The obvious one, and the best friend quiz this was made for. Find out if they really know your most irrational opinion.

• A newer friend

  A low score is fine. It's a quick way to learn the things that usually take months.

• A sibling or roommate

  People you see every day can be surprisingly wrong about what you love.

For a quiz about the memories you share rather than about you, try the Friendship Test. For a partner, the getting to know each other questions compare your answers instead of testing guesses.
