Scientology Test Center

My boyfriend made us stop in this place as I was trying to walk past. They told us we were taking a free personality and IQ test for free. We answer the 200 question test. I was ready to go, but of course since nothing is free they tried to sell of their course which is apparently supposed to change my entire life because if I didn’t buy anything right there I was going to spiral out of control. The course I was offered was $ 50 for 2 ½ hours. I just want the personality test I wasn’t there to buy a course or class. When I declined I spent an additional 20 minutes explaining why I declined and how I’m ruining my own life.

The best thing that ever happened to me in this life was finding out about the Church of Scientology. I have been helped in so many ways by my experiences with this incredible Church and even more important I have seen many others helped. It has been more than 42 years since I first walked into the Church and I have enjoyed ever minute of my experience since. I recommend that everyone should look for themselves and see if it would be a good thing for you. You cannot make someone be a Scientologist as each individual needs to decide for themselves. All the best to you!!!

I am writing this review for all those who might be lured into joining their paid courses. While I did not take the course myself, the forced salesmanship of their staff was enough evidence of this sham.
I stopped by this center with my sister and a friend while walking past. We had never been to a scientology church before and wanted to know more. Now we do and it’s pure science fiction with a façade of life improvement techniques. The building is well funded and well staffed. The sales pitch is aggressive. The aptitude and attitude of the «technical staff» is extremely poor.
What drove me to write this review was this one particular salesman who after talking to my sister came up to me and blatantly lied that she wanted to join their course. He insisted that I had to pay right at that moment or my sister’s life was fucked. (in his words). He also mentioned that he is smarter than me, has more perspective and I should listen to him. When I told him politely still that I would get back to him after talking to my sister about her plans, he called me a liar. I just walked away. My sister had obviously not shown any interest in the course and was amazed by this guy’s balls.
The whole place is designed to make money by aggressive means with no real principles.

Don’t know exactly how this stuff works, but it’s helped two relatives, one to get over a spouse’s death, and another to find a purpose in life.

Friendly people, helpful technology! Highly recommended! If you want to improve your life and want to go to a place of people you can honestly trust, this is the place to go.

There was a time when I was not so happy with my life, pretty certain I was not ever going to get what I knew I wanted… What was controlling my mind? Was there really more to me than flesh & bones? Or did I have a mind & body and I was a spiritual being? I now have found answers.
Scientology is the study of life. This information center is here to answer such questions. Great staff. Nice service & manners. Beautiful building. Safe space.
Recently reopened at 6724 Hollywood Blvd. Down the street from Hollywood & Highland.

Let me preface this properly:
I’M AN IDIOT.
I was stupid enough to be lured in here one day under the pretense of free sugar-​free Redbull; I walked out with a copy of Dianetics. The details are still kind of blurry, but I think I can recall what happened and recount it here.
I thought that the Scientology dude on the sidewalk was a Mormon, so when he offered me and my buddy free sugar-​free Redbull, I accepted; I’m used to taking things from Mormons, then never talking to them again. This was not the case with the Scientologists. The not-​Mormon and his partner – we’ll call her Chippy, just to keep things simple – somehow talked me into a dark, remote building to take a Scientology personality test.
Needless to say, I am pretty fucked up, but the not-​Mormon and Chippy were more than willing to fix my life. They were so concerned, in fact, that I wasn’t allowed to leave until I bought something.
Then John Travolta came out and told us his plan to buy his way off of Earth by making a fortune using human slaves to mine gold in radioactive areas. Wait, no, that was Battlefield Earth.
Fast forward a few months: Chippy and the not-​Mormon, along with bushels of their Scientology friends, like to send me occasional e-​mails about how they hope I am not living in a gutter somewhere, but would not expect any better from me because I am not a Scientologist… YET.
I have no idea how to get off the mailing list (I’ve tried everything to no avail), so I guess I’m still considered a Scientologist. At least they’ve stopped calling me every other day?
One and a half/​two stars; the extra half to whole star is for the free Redbull, goddamn it for all eternity for leading me to this Xenu forsaken place.
