Thats not the spirit... No, it is not. Can you remember the name of it? Do an internet search. You should be able to get hold of it somehow... Or a scoring guide or whatever.
I hate tests:
intelligence tests
aptitude tests
diagnostic tests
personality teststhey are a way for psychologists to justify their existence and its not like they don't have better things to be doing with their time.
sorry... but they really make me mad. and imo they are largely a matter of self-fulfilling prophesy at any rate.
so... i have no qualms whatsoever about studying up on them and giving them what they want to hear
(i mean, that shows initiative and intelligence all by itself - right?)you might have to get a little creative in order to obtain them though....
they tend to be guarded quite carefully...
mostly because...
if how they work is known to the general public...
they lose their validityha!
best beat 'em at their own game methinks...
