7. Yes, I agree and therein lies the problem with psych assessment tests
Everyone tries to out psych them so you never get honest answers. It's the same thing with a job interview, but a skilled interviewer can ask different questions based on the applicant's answers and get past the BS and you also get a feeling for what the applicant is really like which you can never do with a cookie cutter test.
