What is the best way to prepare for the LSAT?
The LSAT measures skills and knowledge that develop over a period of time. Thus, you cannot prepare for the test by making a last-minute effort to master specific subject areas. However, persons who have thoroughly familiarized themselves with test directions and questions types, who have practiced on available sample tests, and who have studied information available on test-taking techniques and strategies, may feel more secure on the day of the test. Question types and sample questions are included at no charge in the Law School Admission Information Book , which also includes information about additional nominally priced LSAT preparation materials. Candidates may also purchase the preparation materials and download the sample test.
How long after the test will I receive my results?
LSAT takers who have LSAC.org accounts will automatically receive their LSAT scores by e-mail approximately three weeks after taking the test. This is the quickest way to obtain your LSAT score, and there is no additional charge.
LSAC will send score reports by mail approximately four weeks after each test. Test takers who have LSAC.org accounts can pay a one-time fee of $25 if they wish to obtain hard-copy mailings of account information that is available online.
How many times can I take the LSAT?
Normally, you may not take the LSAT more than three times in any two-year period. This policy applies even if you cancel your score or it is not otherwise reported. LSAC reserves the right to cancel your registration, rescind your admission ticket, or take any other steps necessary to enforce this policy. However, you may retake the LSAT if a law school to which you are applying requires a more recent score than any you have on record, or approves your retaking the test, and the school provides LSAC with written proof of its requirement no later than the last day of registration for the test.
How do law schools evaluate the writing sample?
LSAC sends a copy of the applicant’s writing sample to law schools along with the LSAT or Credential Assembly Service (LSDAS) law school report. If you have taken the LSAT more than once, the three most recent writing samples will be sent to law schools. Each law school determines for itself how it will make use of the writing sample.
Do I need to register for the Credential Assembly Service (LSDAS)?
Most ABA-approved law schools require the Credential Assembly Service (LSDAS). If you are a candidate educated outside the US, its territories, or Canada, and you are not applying to any school that requires the authentication and evaluation feature of the Credential Assembly Service (LSDAS), you are not required to register for it. However, you may choose to register for the Credential Assembly Service (LSDAS) if you wish to use the electronic application or the Letter of Recommendation Service.
