Through studying for LSAT do you think you gained something (eg critical thinking)?

  Yeah, my brain seems more wired to dissect arguments and read more critically.

  For certain lol. As @"Cant Get Right" says, "I have respect for the LSAT." It does something to your brain and perspective on life that no other test can and I mean that in the wierdest way possile lol

  Oh ya !!!! My personal growth is phenomenal. Just reading those passages ; topics I was never exposed to ; things I never thought about. Of course reasoning etc ...

  Oh certainly. Especially spotting flaws and gaps in arguments that are possible assumptions. I've heard-tell that this mindset is crucial for success in law school.

  I think it's clarified some things about flawed arguments, so I am now able to better articulate why an argument is flawed, rather than go by "gut feeling". It's also made me a lot more aware of the precise use of words to convey specific meanings, not just by LSAT writers, but by other people who are very aware of the impact their words can have and watch what they say very carefully (you can really notice this with politicians, especially those with a law school background - the heavy overlap is not accidental).

  Short answer I can see through a lot of BS in media.
