EARLY SCREENING TESTS FOR LAWYERS

I am pretty sure that you can tell by first grade whether your kid will be a lawyer. Here are some example response to a basic question, and you can see trends. The question was "what is 2+2?"

Children predisposed to be doctors would gather with other children, come up with the answer of 4, and each one would want individual credit.

Liberal presidential candidates tended to assert that this was OBVIOUSLY a problem they inherited from a previous first grader and that the answer was 4 BUT they were going to add 4 more to it for your own good.

Children pre-disposed to work in sales answered that it was 8, but for today only they would give you an answer of 4 if they got credit for it today.

Children destined for the food services industry were unable to even identify the problem UNLESS you showed it to them on a flat piece of thin laminated plastic with a picture over it.  They tended to just push the picture with their finger, thinking that -itself- was the solution.

But children predestined for law gave the most thought provoking answer.  When asked "what is 2+2" they look around ensuring no one else was listening, then asked you "what do you WANT it to be?"
