I think I have a new way of taking tests…  ask spirit for the answers. 

I had to attend a class at school for new teachers.  Because of the Reiki 1 class last week, I did not go to the class the school was putting on. 

Within the first 15 minutes of this class, we were given a quiz of 10 multiple choice questions.  Now, granted, I expected to reason out some things, but I knew that some of the information I had never seen before.  For example, two questions asked about a specific named study and its findings.  Having no clue what this study was, I skipped the questions and came back to them.

Then I had the idea to ask spirit.  I looked at the first question and asked for the answer.  Immediately, I felt that the answer was ‘C’.  I then looked at the next question and did the same thing.  I immediately received ‘B’. 

Having no idea, I waited until we went over the answers.  Both of the answers I asked spirit about were correct.  Unfortunately, several of the others I had not, and I got a 50%.  It’s a good thing these weren’t really being graded. 

But that does bring about interesting possibilities to test taking.  I know that when I took my boards, I had opened myself to any help from beyond, and that I was redirected several time from what I was thinking.  This time was a direct plea for the correct answers, and I got them. 

Hmm, I wonder how far that help will go.  Maybe it was there in this case because it didn’t count.  Or maybe they would do this all the time.  Being more open to this stuff than I was five years ago does make a difference.  I guess I’ll have to try it again sometime.
