[jesscaba 24]

hey guys..i have my psych evaluation on Wednesday and to be honest I'm a litte nervous about it. i was wondering what kind of questions they are gonna ask me...?

for mine- true/false questions - they were really strange questions and same questions that were worded differently throughout the "testing" LOL - one was do you have numbness, did you want to be a nurse, were you ever abused, questions like that. - mine was about 300 question!! answer truthfully and you'll be fine! =)

Mine was a lengthy but pleasant evaluation. I was told it would take about 3 hours. I first talked with the psychologist for about an hour. Although she asked several questions, she was very nice and it felt like we were simply chatting. After she finished interviewing me, she led me down the hallway to a room with computers. Next, I took an assessment on the computer (the MMPI, I think), which took about another hour.

The psychologist told me I was the ideal candidate for the lap band, which increased my confidence.
