@stepharizona288 yup, I cringed so hard.
Most of what he's saying is nonsense so I won't go there but I do want to make one point clear for those 7sagers studying hard for the LSAT. "The LSAT is bent towards those who are unimaginative" is absolute utter bullshit.
You need a lot of imagination for the LSAT. All the RC subject matter that you've never been exposed to, you need to imagine how these words on the page could describe something that makes sense and is real. For LR and the RRE questions, all the potential explanations of phenomenon that no one's ever told you, you need imagine their possibility. Or at least you need to be open and receptive to them when you encounter them in the answer choices.
Scientists are some of the most imaginative people in the world. What grand imagination it took for a scientist to realize that the force that pulls an apple from a tree is the exact same force that holds the Earth in orbit around the Sun. (Trivial to us now, but it wasn't always so.) Logical v. imaginative is a false dichotomy.
It's fun to play with astrology or the MBTI but realize that both are pseudo sciences that takes advantage of the Barnum or Forer effect: "the observation that individuals will give high accuracy ratings to descriptions of their personality that supposedly are tailored specifically for them, but are in fact vague and general enough to apply to a wide range of people."
Since he mentioned the top LSAT scorers that he knows, I'll counter with the top LSAT scorers that I know. They all have a firm grasp of logic and their ability to think critically enhances their intuition and judgment which helps them sense, feel, or perceive the right answers.
Rest assured that the LSAT is not bent towards any particular personality "type". Rather it's bent towards your mastery over the concepts we cover in our core curriculum and how much work you put in. So, study hard!
Female INTJ. Redhead. Can't get rarer than that.
@terrye2770 Had to share this with you/all...
Colbert's type
I'm an INTP! @terrye2770 I saw this thread after I messaged you. My school administered the MBTI. Wow, there are A LOT of ENTJs here.
Wow. I just went through my "not" rules whilst reading said response. How you've messed me up LSAT...
INTP- any others out there?
@alejoroarios925 neither do I. But then again, both of us are not Americans, I believe.
I don't get it :(
INTP fo' life!
Why is this thread still even open??? You noobs!
STFU!!! That was hilarious! Colbert is killing it!
@7sagestudentservices Hmm...I got the same thing using your source. Hey, it's consistent!
@stepharizona288 - Another INTJ! Are you a guy or gal? I've never met another female INTJ.
INTJ - that of Michelle Obama/Hilary Clinton/John F Kennedy :)
So I am ENTJ2 of 3?
PS this is me IRL.
Damn, not a single additional ENFP yet! @terrye2770, it's pretty crazy you're percentages are pretty balanced. All mine are heavily skewed.
INTJ
@kylemitchellx966 Another INFJ! Yay!
@briebock86 Yeah INTP here...
@kylemitchellx966 Are you a girl or guy? I think male INFJ's are THE rarest type. You would be the Mew Pokemon of personalities!
...who gets that reference?
This is the thing we really care about. http://www.humanmetrics.com/westeros/
@terrye2770 We've got Arya, Tywin, and Petyr. A healthy mix of badassery, treachery, and the letter Y.
INTJ all the way!
Thanks for blasting me @terrye2770 ! I'll start -- I'm an ENFP.
Lol the regrets of starting a thread... :) It popped up in my side bar yesterday and came back to life
This thread simply won't die! ^o^
