I wasn't sure whether to put it in Member Longue or Serious discussion, so I put it here.
Has anyone ever done Careers testing?
They have this, like, 3 hour test. We did it in June, and I just got my results back this past week. They give you scores for each of these: Reasoning, Numerical, Perceptual, Verbal, Spatial, Mechanical, Manual Speed, Manual Skill, Awarness, Flexibility, Inner conviction and Decisiveness. They then tell you careers that might be suitible for you. But it felt like being those kids on Alias...(lol, everything is to do with Alias...OMG...The Times newspaper today had a poem by Issabella Rossilini about being dropped as the face of Lancome...AND they had a catalogue with a game called Alias! (A kind of rip-off of Taboo))
They told me:
