spiritual aptitude test, or snake oil?

a popular 125-question survey that promises to help identify my spiritual gifts sets me thinking.

the biggest question of all, i figure, is this: are these questions validated? which is to say, is this similar to the which mood are you / what is your love style quizzes on fb? sometimes we forget to distinguish between pretty trinkets and prosaic tools like common sense and wisdom.
