This is an actual psychological test.  It has often been given to Freshman students at University in Psychology 101.

The Student is asked to answer with first impressions and give as much detail as possible.

The best thing to do when taking this test is write down your impressions.  Don’t read ahead, just go one question at a time, then move on to the next one.

Don’t consider what you should or shouldn’t say, go with the first image that pops into your head.

First Part

1. You are walking on a path. Describe it and as much of the scene as your envision.

2. As you are walking you see a key on the ground; what does it look like?
