First of all, I wasn't attacking you or saying you were duluding yourself in any way. I merely am stating my reasons why I believe your theory is incorrect. That's why discussion boards like this exist.

Second, as silent speaker says, we know how testing is done to find those who can learn. In the case of the Seanchan, they throw the collar on them. If the sul'dam can feel them, then they know the poor girl can channel and they take her. If they pass that test, then they get a chance to wear the braclet. If they can feel the woman who is collared, then they know she can be sul'dam, or in other words that they can learn to channel. Though they don;t realize that's what it means.

As for how AS test for it, they bring the woman into the tower, make them try repeatedly to sense the TS, probably put them through tests like what Taim uses at the BT, and after trying for a few weeks/months, they send them on their way if there's no response. In tSR the girls never once say they can sense any kind of ability in Eaganin. They merely ask if she wants to go to the Tower to see if she learns. They ask her that because she's asking them about being AS. as a matter of fact, Elayne specifically says that she can't sense the ability in Eaganin.
