There are web sites that help prep for these types of tests. Took the mmpi a while back and it was a pain. Know some people that got called by the shrink after. They did get hired just slowed the process down.
I think you need to tell them what they want to hear, but not be unrealistic. Also have to be consistent. It seems as though answering too well (being a completely flawless human) may raise flags for honesty.

He answered, "I think my honesty is my biggest flaw."
The shrink said, "Honesty? I don't think honesty is a flaw!"
And the applicant said, "Well, I -honestly- don't give a fk what YOU think!"

I don't think the test is "Pass-Fail".
It is a PERSONALITY test.
You cannot Fail to have a personality, but I've seen a few who certainly tried!
The 'test' is to tell the tester what -type- of personality you have. Then they decide if that's the type they want to hire.
One company may want to hire only Type A, another might want Type B, some may want Type C, etc.
