Test categories revealed
Pic comes from The Spoiler Hunter, who shot the categories inside the booth. Some were partially obscured, but using WP's moon list, it was easy to work out the last two with a different angle he also uploaded (once you have the first few letters, there's only one logical answer). So here's the list, all moons of Jupiter (though they picked random ones)...
Io
Europa
Ganymede
Callisto
Amalthea
Himalia
Elara
Leda
Again, a weird combo? I see on Wikipedia that there are other ones bigger than the latter four (the former four of course are the ones first seen by Galileo). First letter acronyms at work? Come on, there must be something!
UPDATE - Get yourself over to DocArzt stat for a video from inside the booth!!! The info is not great, I think the tests themselves are merely random questions, though they will probably from this indicate personality and what job you should do for DHARMA.

An anagram solver, using the first letter of the moons listed, reveals the possibilities:
ELEGIAC CHELAE HELIAC LICHEE AGILE AGLEE CHELA CHIEL CHILE EAGLE GLACE ILEAC LAICH LAIGH LEACH LEECH LIEGE ACHE AGEE ALEC ALEE CAGE CEIL CHIA CLAG EACH ECHE EGAL ELHI GALE GHEE GLEE GLIA HAIL HALE HEAL HEEL HEIL HILA ILEA LACE LAIC LECH LICE LICH ACE AGE AIL ALE CEE CEL CHI EEL GAE GAL GEE GEL GHI GIE HAE HAG HIC HIE ICE ICH LAC LAG LEA LEE LEG LEI LIE AE AG AH AI EH EL HA HE HI LA LI
And of course there are the "I" and "a" to consider.
Maybe the real H(enry) Gale will be revealved, or A(rchibald) Leach--or Cary Grant--will figure into the plotline.
If you use all eight moons as one big anagram, you can get DHARMA INITIATI_E (just missing that elusive V!)
Putting the first letter of each moon into Acronym Finder reveals nothing, and they moons are (in order from Jupiter) numbers 3, 5, 6, 8 , 10, 11 and 13. Pattern? The moons are overwhelmingly women's name and a lot of them bore the children of Zeus (Ganymede is male, and Amalthea seems to be a nymph not a bride of Zeus but a type of foster mother of his. Her sign is the cornucopia.)
Callisto by the way is turned into a bear (a polar bear?) and put into the sky (according to legend) and she's now one of the Ursa constellations. Interesting shit indeed.
Knowing LOSTs penchant for mythological reference I certainly don't put it past them to simply co-opt perfectly good moon names to signify something more ancient than space travel.
Good work guys, I link here all the time :)
