So I am late to this party, but I just watched "Divergent" for the first time. For those of you who have seen the movie or read the books, which faction would you choose? What would be your reasons for this choice? I would definitely choose Dauntless. Candor would be a close second choice. I thought that someone would have already created a thread about this subject, but I searched and found nothing. Discuss.

    A Divergent Dauntless, what's not to like? tattoos, parkour, free physical training and hard bodies all around you. Divergent because I doubt I would ever fit into any one single category not unlike real life.

    I would be Abnegation. Seems fitting, I am a social worker. I liked the part in the movie where her brother was chiding her for not helping the woman with her suitcase. My mom used to brow beat me about things like that! Now service comes natural.

    Candor.
    My coworkers like to say I have no tact. I value honesty anyway.


    Or Erudite. I like learning.

    Pretty sure I'd test Divergent lol

    (I finished all four books in the last 8 days so its all fresh in my head lol)

    Erudite. I sometimes tend to be a little evil too.

    I would definitely test Divergent but choose Dauntless. I cannot wait to read the books.

    The farmers all seemed pretty happy, and they were the only ones not involved in the conflict...I'd go with them

    I considered that, but I hate living out in the country. I would get bored quickly and want to be involved in the action.

    i don't want to jump of a train every day to go to work, so the dauntless is out lol.

    no way would i have jumped into what basically looked like a bottomless pit.

    the rest of the factions i pretty much forget about because the movie was pretty boring IMO. the hunger games, which it seems like it begs to be compared to, was much better.

    I guess the intectual group

    I'd be Divergent and would probably end up dead because I'd be too "Candor" to hide my secret.

    lol I would love to jump out of trains and freefall into pits (with a netting, of course). I am an adrenaline junkie.

    Candor. I am usually honest. I prefer people to be honest with me too.

    Candor fo sho. I couldn't survive dauntless but I could probably be convinced to to die trying if I got to be surrounded by men who looked like Four and Eric. :heart:

    Or maybe Amity, because they probably smoke weed.

    Dauntless as long as Four is there :wink: :

    Otherwise I would probably be Divergent as I can see myself fitting into more than one catagory.

    Abnegation

    If not Divergent - Then Abnegation with some Erudite.

    I have not seen the movie yet, and got annoyed 1/3 of the way through the second book.

    Well, we'd all test Divergent- because that's the whole point: that if you're NORMAL (normal feelings, normal reactions) you have all these traits (at least, at some level). In the book, the point was that everyone was ONE TRAIT (brave or kind or smart or selfless or honest), and that Tris and the other Divergents were what we would consider normal- with multiple diverse traits.

    But if I had to pick one that would most suit me, I'd pick Erudite?

    My quiz says Erudite, but Dauntless and Candor are tied for 2nd

    That is pretty cool! I tested equally for Dauntless and Erudite.

    I got Dauntless with Candor a close second. Abnegation was almost a zero, which is strange to me.
  • 100% dauntless ????
    Tattoos obviously, courageous, ballsy, lol

    I was surprised that my Amity score was the lowest one.

    I'm pretty sure I'd end up Erudite. But now that there is a test we shall see...BRB

    According to the test:

    Abnegation
    Amity
    Erudite
    Candor
    Dauntless

    This.... feels pretty right, actually.

    Right, but they didn't know there was a net that first time. I would never have made it lol

    lol, I kept thinking, "Well they're not just going to let them die, and being without a faction seems worse than death to me.Just jump and get it over with." But yeah, I see your point. :smile:
