SeeD Test answers
Surprised no one posted this yet, anyway here’s the answers to all the SeeD tests (passing with 100% increases your rank and thus gives you more gil per paycheck) However, your rank can still go up or down based upon your actions. You can only take tests up to Squall’s current level. (Obviously this isn’t a problem after Level 30)

Start at FF8 Demo Save Point.
Download the FF8 demo from the internet. You automatically jump ahead (its a demo). Play it for a little until you beat it. (Or get to a point where you havn’t got that far in the full version). Once you’ve gotten as far as you needed and save, move then contents of the folder ‘Save’ (typically under program files > FF8) to your current full version of FF8’s ‘Save’ folder. Open the full version and you should see the demo save file in the full version. You can now play from your demo file and continue freely.

Defeat Ifrit.
Siren
Draw from Monster after fighting Biggs and Wedge.

Defeat Sacred and Minotaur in Tomb Of The Unknown King.
Diablos
Before going to Timber, talk to headmaster Cid until you get the Magic Lamp. Save the game, use the lamp, and defeat Diablos. Draw and store Demi then cast it. Do not draw and immediately cast, as he will not cast Curaga on your character.

Leviathan
Draw from NORG after destroying his pod.
Pandemona
Draw from Fuijin in the battle with Fuijin and Raijin.
Cerberus

Bahamut
Go to the island in lower left corner of the map.
Walk only when light is not flashing. Go straight until the message «you have perceived the resonance» appears. Go to opening at flashing object, fight Ruby Dragon (you have no choice). If you are in bad shape, answer «Yeah, there’s nothing we can do». If not, answer «Never». With luck, Ruby Dragon will not use its Breath attack, as your characters will die. When you win, select «Cancel», then «Accept». Watch out for Bahamut’s Mega Flare.
Tonberry
Defeat Odin. Then fight 20 Tonberrys at top of elevator or open place, not at torch lit place at its base. You will fight the Tonberry King.
Cactuar
Use Ragnarok to fly to the island on the outside of a desert; you will see a cactus teleporting around. Walk up to it. Be careful, as its 10,000 needles do 100,000 damage.
Doom Train
Get the Solomon Ring from the Esthar Sorceress Memorial at end of Disc 3. Laguna will have talked about defeating Ultimicia.
You need six steel pipes and other items. He will appear without a fight.
Eden
Draw from Ultima Weapon. Bahamut must have already been defeated. Give one pressure spot all the time you can. If you do not, reset at the first steam pressure spot, put Zell in you party and let him «tinker» with the machine demanding four pressure; you will get away. Since you lose four pressure the first time you reset, it is as if you did not make a mistake (only, a lot of strong monsters will flood the area). Set the Move/Find ability to find the final save spot.
