After a string of bad test grades pushes her semester average lower than she needs for her scholarship, Alice needs help. Fortunately her somewhat slutty roommate has a good suggestion, Dr. McDonnal, a hypnotherapist who helped her quit smoking.<\/p>\n<p>But what happens when the doctor leaves Alice with the mental acceptance that any test she sees she will do whatever it takes to pass? Nothing bad, until Alice happens to cast eyes on a pregnancy test in her roommate&#8217;s purse.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s time for the Readers Choice Month test, but passing this one will be as easy as Alice.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/644219\" target=\"_blank\">Find it on Smashwords now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01H99JYBA\" target=\"_blank\">Now on Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As roommates in college, there couldn&#8217;t be a pair of girls more different than Alice and Jamie. Where Jamie has always been the freer spirit, the wild child with the line of boys waiting for a chance, Alice is as focused a student as their ever was.<\/p>\n<p>It would be a highly unusual sight to see if Alice were not nearly always pacing the room in concern over one class or another. This time however, Alice has good reason, and as she puts it, this time she may just be screwed.<\/p>\n<p>In order to maintain her scholarship, she must maintain a certain average over all her courses, and an unfortunate B in Physics recently has pushed her overall average daringly close to the level where she may just lose it at the end of the semester.<\/p>\n<p>Pacing and freaking out, giving Jamie a headache, Alice knows she has to ace every test, every exam, that she absolutely has to pass every test she faces from now until the semester ends or else she is totally screwed.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing her roommate is not one to calm down easy, Jamie decides to help out, at least as much as a girl like her can. She suggests that Alice go and see Dr. McDonnal, the hypnotherapist who assisted with Jamie quitting smoking.<\/p>\n<p>While Alice definitely knows that her roommate hasn&#8217;t touched a single cigarette since the sessions with Dr. McDonnal, she also is well aware that her oral obsessions remain, though possibly better used at least according to a number of guys on campus.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the case, Alice is desperate. She absolutely has to pass every test, and while she has always been excellent at knowing the material in every course, she has been plagued by a total panic when it comes to testing on those materials.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. McDonnal can help. He has to, Alice thinks as she immediately sets up a session with the reputed doctor. After discussing her problems, her fears, and the needs to pass her tests, Dr. McDonnal comes up with what he believes will be the easiest solution, provided Alice is true to her word and knows the material needed for actually passing her tests.<\/p>\n<p>After putting Alice under, she is given the simplest instructions, that any test she is faced with from now on, she will not feel stress, only the acceptance that she do whatever it takes to pass that test.<\/p>\n<p>Everything goes great, Alice leaving feeling finally prepared and free not to constantly pace a room or freak out over keeping her scholarship, but then her plans of a night spent reading over some test material change as soon as her roommate asks her to put the card for Dr. McDonnal back in her purse.<\/p>\n<p>Just a casual glance into the purse leads Alice to a test she never imagined, a test even the doctor never considered. A girl like Jamie has something of a reputation on campus, particularly with the guys, and as Alice slowly pulls out the pregnancy test and reads the words over and over, something clicks in her brain.<\/p>\n<p>Will Alice focus and study and be the responsible sweet girl she always has been, or will her new acceptance that she do whatever it takes to pass a test push her into naughty acts never before considered to pass this ultimate test?<\/p>\n<p>Find out in the twisted tale of hypnosis humping known simply as Passing the Test.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/644219\" target=\"_blank\">Find it on Smashwords now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01H99JYBA\" target=\"_blank\">Now on Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alice knows the material for her classes but is always panicking over the tests.
