I don't know if it's low-hanging. In my experience finding what you are REALLY interested in involves a lot of trial and error, while aptitude tests are worthless beyond the pretty obvious division into techies and humanities people.

I am of the opinion that much better tests can exist, not sure if they do, which can divide people into further categories.
