You got: Very Privileged!

The Comprehensive Privilege Test

How privileged are you? Privilege is a special right or advantage granted or made available only to a particular person or select group. Our privilege test allows you to check your privilege in an introspective and non-judgmental way.

In modern society, there are privileges enjoyed only by the rich, the famous, or the educated. These people get certain benefits that others outside the group do not have access to. Hunger, fear, disability, pain, poverty, and discrimination are some of the things that the privileged may never get to experience.

There are also some things that should be known as needs rather than privileges, and are being hotly debated. Education, for one, is clearly important to every individual but not necessarily offered to every child in the world. So, if you've had a good education, you can be considered kind of lucky.

Exploring Privilege with Our Quiz

We all carry an invisible backpack, filled with experiences, circumstances, and identities that shape our lives. Some of these elements, like access to education or socioeconomic background, can unconsciously grant us advantages we may not even realize. This isn't about blame or shame, but about understanding how these "backpack contents" influence our perspectives and how we navigate the world.

This privilege quiz isn't a magic wand that reveals a definitive "privilege score." Instead, it's an invitation to unpack your own backpack, examine its contents with honesty and curiosity, and embark on a personal journey of self-discovery. You'll encounter questions that may feel uncomfortable, challenge biases, and spark reflection.

No judgment, just gentle exploration. By taking our privilege test, you'll:

• Gain insights into your own experiences: Examine how your upbringing, family background, and access to resources shaped your opportunities and challenges.
• Break down assumptions: Question ingrained beliefs about privilege and its manifestations, opening doors to new perspectives.
• Spark empathy and understanding: Reflecting on your own backpack can help you appreciate the diverse journeys of others, fostering inclusive conversations and building bridges.
• Uncover areas for growth: Recognizing personal privileges isn't about self-flagellation, but about identifying areas where we can use our advantages to advocate for equality and dismantle systemic inequalities.
