So what are all of your impressions?  Do you think its possible to be bluffed and told you are registering high and still pass

No, if you were told you reacted to this and grilled about it, you were inconclusive at best or you failed.

Thats really not what I wanted to hear.  I'll wait and stew I guess.  Thanks for the response.

Looking at the list of questions in original post....
Is "Have you ever lied to a supervisor?" a control question?
Is it something almost eveyone has done?
Or is it something that the FBI would definitely not want a candidate to do?

The question about lying to a supervisor is indeed a probable-lie "control" question. You'll find "control" questions commonly used by the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies listed in DoDPI's Law Enforcement Pre-Employment Test examiner's guide:
