The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is a half-day standardized test required for admission to all ABA-approved law schools, most Canadian law schools, and many non-ABA-approved law schools. It provides a standard measure of acquired reading and verbal reasoning skills that law schools can use as one of several factors in assessing applicants. The test is administered four times a year at hundreds of locations around the world.

Many law schools require that the LSAT be taken by December for admission the following fall. However, taking the test earlier—in June or October—is often advised

The registration fee for the LSAT is $118. If you meet certain criteria, you may qualify for an LSAC fee waiver. Late registrants must pay an additional $60.

If you register for a specific LSAT administration during the regular registration period, you are not eligible for late registration for that same administration. Once you have registered for a test during the regular registration period, you may not withdraw or cancel Your registration and reregister for that same test during the late registration period.

If it is impossible for you to travel to a test center listed in LSAC online registration, and you are located over 100 miles from an open, published center, you may request that LSAC establish a non published test center. Because it takes additional administrative time to establish and open a center, you should submit Your request as early as possible before the deadline for non published test centers. If you request testing accommodations at a non published test center, all required documentation relating to Your disability must be submitted in time to meet the appropriate non published test center registration receipt deadline.

The fee for a non published test center, in addition to the $115 test registration fee, is $213 US Dollars ($287 in Canadian Dollars) for centers in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and US Territories and $284 US Dollars ($382 Canadian Dollars) for centers in other countries.

To request a non published test center, you must submit Your registration by mail using the registration form included in the LSAT & LSDAS Registration Packet. Call 215.968.1001 to request a packet. LSAC must receive Your form, request, and fees on or before the receipt deadline for non published test centers listed under the Test Dates and Deadlines area of our web site.

If registration is received after the non published test center deadline, efforts will be made to notify you that we will process the request for the next regularly scheduled test date. If there is no response within a reasonable amount of time, we will return all registration materials and fees.

Be sure to:

	Leave the test center code items blank on Your registration form.
	Enclose a letter of request noting the names of large cities near Your preferred test location. It would also be helpful if you could provide the name, street address, e-mail address, and telephone/fax numbers (including both country and city codes) of an educational institution along with the name of a staff member who may be willing to supervise the test on the date for which you are registering.
	Include the $115 LSAT registration fee and the non published test center fee ($213 US Dollars [$287 Canadian Dollars] for centers in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and US Territories; $284 US Dollars [$382 Canadian Dollars] for centers in other countries) and enter the amount in the appropriate space on Your registration form. The non published test center fee is not covered by a fee waiver. LSAC will not attempt to establish a non published test center unless the appropriate fees have been received with Your registration form by the deadline date. LSAC recommends that you use priority mail to meet these deadlines.

In case LSAC cannot accommodate Your request, please indicate in Your letter which of the following alternatives Your prefer: a refund of Your test fees, registration at the same location on the next regularly scheduled test date, or an alternative test center.

Test Date Change or Refund

If you are unable to take the LSAT on the date for which you are registered, you have two options that will remove the test date from Your file. You may request a change to another date within the current testing year (if registered for a February exam you may change to the next testing year), or you may cancel Your registration for a partial refund.

The fee to change the date is $31 US ($40 CDN plus GST). The easiest and quickest way to change Your test date is via online services. This will also give you instant access to available centers. Or, you may send the payment with a completed Test Date Change Form or a written request to (include a valid credit card number and expiration date with Your request):

What does the test comprises of:

The LSAT is designed to measure skills considered essential for success in law school: the reading and comprehension of complex texts with accuracy and insight; the organization and management of information and the ability to draw reasonable inferences from it; the ability to think critically; and the analysis and evaluation of the reasoning and arguments of others. The test consists of five 35-minute sections of multiple choice questions. Four of the five sections contribute to the test taker’s score. These sections include one reading comprehension section, one analytical reasoning section, and two logical reasoning sections. The un scored section typically is used to pretest new test questions or to pre equate new test forms. The placement of this section, which is commonly referred to as the variable section, varies for different administrations of the test. The LSAT is scored on a scale of 120 to 180, with 180 being the highest possible score. A 35-minute writing sample is administered at the end of the test. LSAC does not score the writing sample, but copies are sent to all law schools to which a candidate applies.

Admission Ticket
Whether you register for the LSAT online and print out Your ticket Yourself, or you receive a ticket in the mail, you must take the ticket with you to the test center. Your ticket will contain the following pertinent information: reporting time, reporting address, test center instructions, and test center procedures. The address on the ticket is a reporting address. For the October, December, and February administrations of the LSAT, candidates are required to be at the test center no later than 8:30 AM. For the June LSAT, candidates are required to be at the test center no later than 12:30 PM. The actual test date and reporting time at foreign centers may vary. Refer to Your LSAT Admission Ticket for the exact test date and time.

At the test center, be sure to sign Your ticket and carefully read all information provided on the front and reverse sides. If Your admission ticket is not signed or the certifying statement is modified or altered in any way, a reporting hold will be placed on Your file, possibly causing a delay in reporting Your score. Your ticket may be used only for the test date printed on it. Online registrants can reprint the LSAT ticket if it is misplaced. If you register by mail and do not receive Your ticket, call LSAC at 215.968.1001 before the late registration date listed inside the front cover.

Check Your online account the night before the LSAT. Because LSAT test supervisors sometimes need to change reporting addresses without much notice, LSAC recommends that registrants print out their LSAT Admission Ticket the night before the exam to ensure that they have the most recent and accurate reporting address for their centers. Test takers should not contact LSAT test center supervisors for any reason. Test takers are not permitted access to testing rooms prior to the exam.

Identification : You must take to the test center one current valid photo ID bearing Your signature. The ID presented must contain a recent and recognizable photo and visible signature on the same form of ID. Acceptable forms of ID include:

- passport
- driver’s license
- student ID
- employee ID

The following items are not considered acceptable forms of ID for access to the test center:

- Social Security card
- Social Insurance card
- birth certificate
- credit card (including those with photo)
- expired ID

Note: Admission to the test center will be denied if Your first and last name on the ID do not match exactly the first and last name on Your LSAT Admission Ticket. If you have ID questions, you must contact LSAC (LSACINFO@LSAC.org or 215.968.1001) with sufficient time to resolve ID issues well in advance of the test day.

By E-mail : LSAT takers who have LSAC online 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. Please keep Your e-mail address current in Your LSAC online account to receive Your score promptly.

By Telephone : Test takers can obtain test scores via TelScore approximately three weeks after taking the test. There is a fee for TelScore, payable by credit card only (go to www.LSAC.org for current fees). TelScore: 215.968.1200; available at all times except 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM (ET) Sundays. LSAT TelScore provides Your score and percentile rank for the most recently administered test, but not for any previous tests. Percentile ranks of nonstandard-time scores are not available and will not be reported.

By Mail : LSAC will send score reports by mail approximately four weeks after each test. Test takers who have LSAC online accounts will pay a one-time fee to obtain hard-copy mailings of account information that is available online. For score release dates for each test administration, see the inside front cover of this book.

The score report that is displayed online or mailed to you will show Your current test results, along with the results of all tests—up to 12—for which you registered since June 1, 2001, including absences and cancellations. An average score is also calculated and reported when you have more than one reportable score. Score bands are reported for all LSAT scores earned on the 120–180 score scale. They reflect the precision of the LSAT and are expressed as a range of scores that have a certain probability of containing Your actual proficiency level. Score bands for the LSAT are designed to include Your actual proficiency level approximately 68 percent of the time. These bands are reported to emphasize that LSAT scores are estimates of Your actual proficiency level. Ascore band is reported for each individual score, as well as for the average score if you have more than one reportable score. A percentile rank is also reported for each LSAT score, reflecting the percentage of candidates scoring below Your reported test score. The percentile for a score is based on the distribution of scores for the three-year period prior to the year in which the score is reported. Examine Your report for further details. LSAT takers who have LSAC online accounts will automatically receive their LSAT scores by e-mail approximately three weeks after taking the test. Test disclosure materials and all other score-related material will be available online at approximately the same time you receive Your score. This information includes Your answer sheet, score conversion table, and test book (for disclosed tests only). Test books for disclosed tests will be available online for six months following the test date. If you take a non disclosed test, you will have access only to Your score and percentile. Test scores are also available by phone through our TelScore service. TelScore will be activated AFTER e-mail scores have been sent. TelScore users can obtain their answer sheet, score conversion table, and test book either online or by mail for disclosed tests. Please note that LSAC online account holders will be subject to a one-time fee for obtaining hard-copy mailings of account information, including test disclosure material, that is available online.

Note to Saturday Sabbath Observers: The regularly scheduled test on June 12, 2006, occurs on a Monday and is disclosed.

Test takers frequently wonder whether they can improve their LSAT score by taking the test a second time. If you believe that Your test score does not reflect Your true ability—
for example, if some circumstance such as illness or anxiety prevented you from performing as well as you might have expected—you should consider taking the test again. Data show that scores for repeat test takers often rise slightly. However, if Your score is a fairly accurate indicator of Your ability, it is unlikely that taking the test again will result in a substantially different score. You should also be aware that there is a chance Your score will drop. Law schools must have access to Your complete test record, not just Your highest score; therefore, LSAC will not honor requests for partial score reports.

Unusually large score differences are routinely reviewed by LSAC. This could involve handwriting analysis of the writing sample and other documents, comparison of thumbprints, or comparison of a test taker’s answers to the answers of other test takers seated nearby in the testing room. The same comparisons may be performed in cases of alleged misconduct or irregularity. Law schools may compare Your original test score to Your scores on subsequent tests. You should notify law schools of any facts relevant to the interpretation of Your test results, such as illness or extenuating circumstances. If there is no reason to believe that one score represents a truer estimate of an applicant’s ability, schools are advised that the average score is probably the best estimate of ability—especially if the tests were taken over a short period of time.

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 requirements no later than the last day of registration for the test.

Note : LSAC does not automatically inform law schools of a candidate’s registration for a retest. It is Your responsibility to inform law schools directly about Your registration for additional tests.

These codes may be used only to indicate a test center for the 2006-2007 academic year.
Do not use these codes for academic record data.

The LSAT is not administered at every test center on all testing dates. In addition, there is limited center availability for each test administration. You should register as early as possible, as Your chances of being assigned to Your first-choice test center are greater. If you register online, you can check test center availability in real time. If you register by mail, and both of Your test center selections are full or unavailable, LSAC will assign you to a center as close to those centers as possible; however, LSAC cannot guarantee that a center located within a reasonable distance from Your preferred centers will be available. Your LSAT admission ticket will reflect the change in test center. Assignment to a test center not indicated in Your LSAT registration and/or test date change request does not entitle you to a full refund or a free test center or test date change.

Some published centers may have been closed subsequent to publication of the current Information Book or the downloadable test center code lists.

Note : Walk-in registration on the day of the test is not permitted at any test center for any test administration.
