Surprised and Disappointed
I once took this quiz for free. It was fun. It provided a long list of my "strengths," pretty much in the order I would've guessed. Because that was a long time ago--and because I thought I might get more out of the book, I purchased this 2.0 version. There are several places that mention the 34 "talents" or "themes." On one page, it's stated that I'll receive a "top five theme report," but, on the next page, it states that I'll receive "an overview of each of the 34 themes." I thought that meant an overview, i.e. something brief, of MY remaining strengths. After taking the quiz this morning, I discovered that I would have to pay extra for the remaining 29. I believe the "sale price" was approximately $39. I reread the book's description on Amazon. It DOES mention "a more customized version of your top five." Maybe most people would understand that to mean *only* five. After previously taking the quiz for free and getting a more detailed report, I assumed the wrong thing.
This was my first experience of getting partway through a book then needing to spend more money. It's like "Offers In-App Purchases." When I called the contact number, the representative told me I'm the first person to complain. Do I believe that? No.
