It's basically a scantron with questions like "I have discussed how finances will be managed with my fiance" (that wasn't an exact question, but stuff like that). Then you answer agree, disagree or uncertain. We each fill it out privately, the results get sent in, and then we get them back in a few weeks and get to discuss our results (the stuff we agreed on, the stuff we didn't, etc.)

Here's the link for FOCCUS if anyone is interested.

I couldn't get into the FOCCUS site without a password, but it sounds very similar to PREPARE. I took it with a man who wanted to marry me, but I knew in my heart didn't know me, so I know a few of the questions. Many are as simple as Do you want children? How many children do you want? How many nights a month do you like to eat out? Are you a morning person? Do you want pets?

It's taken seperately, then you answer it as you think your fiance/e would answer. It's graphed to see your problem areas. There are NO wrong answers, just an idea of what you need to work on as a couple. If you've never really done it before, thinking as a couple is much different than thinking as a single person.
