and pure bloodedness is not a criteria for Slytherin selection.

Yes it is. In the 5th book, like it does every year, the sorting hat describes the quality each founder wanted in its students. This time, however, he mentions pure ancestry for Slytherin instead of ambition.</p>

Said Slytherin, ʹWeʹll teach just those
Whose ancestry is purest.ʹ
Said Ravenclaw, ʹWeʹll teach those whose
Intelligence is surest.ʹ
Said Gryffindor, ʹWeʹll teach all those
With brave deeds to their name,ʹ
Said Hufflepuff, I'll teach the lot,
And treat them just the same.ʹ

This doesn't mean you have to be of pure blood to get into Slytherin, but it definitely counts for brownie points (think about it as being "legacy" on university admissions). Belief that blood purity is important is probably a big way to tilt you towards Slytherin, too, even if you are not of pure blood yourself (look at Tom/Voldemort).</p>

<p>Ravenclaw for me, the uber nerd. But then I'd find a Slytherin to mack (or, in Brit speak, snog) in a broom closet.</p>

63

<p>Hufflepuff for sure. Quiz confirms it :P </p>

<p>Hufflepuff: 72
Gryffindor: 70
Slytherin: 66
Ravenclaw: 58</p>

64

<p>Gryfindors are not a bunch of goody-two-shoes jocks. I am a Gryfindor and I not at all a jock I am hardly athletic at all. But a have to admit that I am a very good student.</p>

65

<p>Slytherin by a large margin.</p>

66

<p>I’m trying and failing to justify why this thread was revived.</p>

67

<p>I don’t really like the whole Harry Potter series and stuff, but i toon the quiz anyways, Gryffindor, here I come!</p>

68

<p>Pottermore sorted me into Ravenclaw. I’m definitely a Ravenclaw.</p>

69

<p>Never took the quiz but I think I’m ravenclaw. Our English teacher used to make the whole middle school read a different book of harry potter (6thgrade- book 1&2 7th grade- book 3 8th grade- book 4) and she would sort everyone. I was ravenclaw two years in a row the time I had her. A senior now, and still think I’m a ravenclaw :D</p>

70

<p>hufflepuff first, ravenclaw second, slytherin third, and gryffindor last</p>

71

<p>Well, knowing that the more intelligent people are usually placed in Ravenclaw, there’s probably a very large number of Ravenclaws on CC ;)</p>

72

<p>Pretty sure I’m a Ravenclaw, but maybe Hufflepuff… it’s possible.</p>

73

<p>I always get a split between Ravenclaw and Slytherin
like, exactly 50-50</p>

74

<p>I got Ravenclaw at 78, closely followed by Slytherin at 76, I feel most CCers are probably either Slytherin or Ravenclaw</p>

75

<p>Here are my results from that quiz thingy:
78- Ravenclaw
74- Hufflepuff
60- Gryffindor
51- Slytherin</p>

<p>Yay for Ravenclaw haha! :smiley: Pottermore put me as Slytherin, but I never really saw how they got that…</p>

76

<p>Ravenclaw!</p>

77

<p>The sorting hat says…</p>

<p>Hufflepuff!</p>

<p>G - 68
R - 64
H - 73
S - 66</p>

78

<p>most CC’ers are probably Slytherin. more ambitious than valuing knowledge</p>

79

<p>Ravenclaw!</p>

<p>G 45
R 88
H 49
S 76</p>

<p>SLYTHERIN! End of story.</p>
