About the test:

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 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 LSAT is scored on a scale of 120-180, 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.
