What’s the LSAT? (2025)

Alright, let’s talk about the LSAT—aka the Law School Admission Test. If you’re even thinking about law school, this test has probably already crept into your Google search history. And if you’re wondering what the hype (or stress) is all about, girl, don’t worry. I got you.

We’re about to unpack everything: what the LSAT is, how it works, what’s on it, how to prep, and whether it actually matters like people say it does. So let’s break it down for real.

1. So… What Even Is the LSAT?

Alright, let’s get real: the LSAT (aka the Law School Admission Test) is the test that most law schools use to size you up when you apply. If you’re aiming to get that J.D. (Juris Doctor) from a law school in the U.S., Canada, or even a few schools in Australia, chances are, you’re gonna need to deal with this exam first.

It’s officially run by the Law School Admission Council (LSAC)—they’re the folks who write the test, manage the registration, and keep the whole process organized. Think of them as the College Board, but for law school.

Now, here’s the kicker: the LSAT is not about testing your knowledge of law. Like, at all. You won’t be quizzed on legal history, statutes, or case law. Instead, the LSAT is all about how you think. It’s built to measure the core skills that law schools believe are necessary to succeed once you’re in the thick of reading casebooks and crafting airtight arguments.

The test focuses on three big mental muscles:

• Reading Comprehension: Can you understand dense, complex texts and pull out the important stuff?
• Logical Reasoning: Can you break down arguments, spot assumptions, and tell when something doesn’t make sense?
• Analytical Thinking (formerly Logic Games, now merged into more logical reasoning): Can you stay sharp and structured when faced with weird, abstract problems?

So really, the LSAT is like an intellectual obstacle course. No flashcards, no fact-memorizing—just brainpower, focus, and strategy.

And because it’s standardized, every test taker is judged by the same criteria. That’s one of the reasons law schools love it—it gives them a way to compare applicants across different majors, colleges, and grading systems. Whether you studied engineering, psychology, or film studies, the LSAT levels the playing field (well, mostly).

To sum it up: the LSAT isn’t about what you know—it’s about how well you reason, read, and react under pressure. If law school is the game, the LSAT is the tryout.

Let’s be honest, it’s kinda intense. But if you’re the type who likes debates, analyzing TikTok drama like it’s a court case, or just solving puzzles for fun, you might lowkey enjoy prepping for it. 👀

2. How Long Is the LSAT & What’s the Format?

Okay, let’s break this down because the structure of the LSAT isn’t super complicated, but it is specific. And when you’re prepping for something this intense, you gotta know exactly what you’re walking into.

As of 2025, the LSAT is made up of four sections, each clocking in at 35 minutes. So if we’re doing the math (which thankfully isn’t tested on this exam 😅), that’s a total of 2 hours and 20 minutes of hardcore brain work—not counting any breaks or the writing section, which is done separately.

Here’s how it’s laid out:

🧠 Logical Reasoning #1

This section hits you with short arguments followed by multiple-choice questions. It’s all about spotting flaws, identifying assumptions, and evaluating logic like a mini mental detective.

🧠 Logical Reasoning #2 (yes, again!)

This is the new kid on the block, replacing the old Logic Games (RIP). It’s basically more of the same from LR #1, but doubling up helps test consistency in how well you can analyze and pick apart arguments under pressure.

Why two? The second Logical Reasoning section became a thing after LSAC dropped the Analytical Reasoning (Logic Games) section for accessibility reasons. Now, instead of diagramming puzzles, you just get more argument-based questions. More reading, more logic, less sketching.

📖 Reading Comprehension

One section filled with long, dense passages that you’ve gotta read and understand fast. Think: legal journal vibes, academic tone, sometimes dry, but always packed with info. You’ll be answering around 26–28 questions that dig into meaning, tone, and structure.

❓Unscored Experimental Section

Yep, there’s a curveball. You get one random section that looks like any of the others but doesn’t count toward your score. LSAC throws this in to test out future questions. The twist? You won’t know which section it is. So treat every section like it counts.

And then, there’s…

✍️ The Writing Sample (Online & Separate)

This part isn’t timed with the others and you don’t even have to do it on test day. You can complete it before or after your LSAT session, as long as it’s within a year. It’s 50 minutes of you writing a quick essay, defending one of two options in a scenario. It’s unscored, but law schools do receive it.

Pro tip: You only need to do the writing sample once every 5 years. So if you retake the LSAT later, no need to write another one unless it’s been a minute.

🕒 Total Time Breakdown

• Scored + Experimental Sections: 4 x 35 minutes = 140 minutes
• Optional Break: Usually after the second section
• Writing Sample (separate): 50 minutes

So while the “main” test takes just over 2 hours, you’ll want to block off more time to account for check-in, breaks, and overall mental prep.

3. What’s Tested on the LSAT?

Alright, let’s really unpack what you’ll be facing on the LSAT. Even though it’s just a few sections, each one is doing the most when it comes to testing how your brain works. And since law school is all about reading, writing, and arguing like a boss, this test is structured to see if you’ve got the mental muscle for it.

Here’s what’s coming your way:

🧠 Logical Reasoning (Now Twice as Much!)

The Logical Reasoning sections—yep, there are two of them now—are lowkey the heart of the LSAT. Together, they make up about half of your total score, and they’re all about dissecting arguments like a pro.

Each question gives you a short paragraph that might be a casual opinion, a news blurb, a scientific claim, or something that sounds straight outta a philosophy podcast. Then, you’re asked to do something with it—find a flaw, strengthen it, weaken it, identify a hidden assumption, or spot what logically follows.

Typical questions sound like:

• “Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the argument?”
• “What is an assumption the argument depends on?”
• “Which conclusion is most strongly supported by the statements above?”

It’s less about “knowing stuff” and more about thinking fast and thinking clearly. You’ve gotta tune out distractions, read between the lines, and apply logical rules like you’re already arguing in court.

Skills tested:

• Argument analysis
• Logical deduction
• Spotting fallacies
• Evaluating evidence

📖 Reading Comprehension

Don’t let the name fool you—this section is no high school book quiz. LSAT Reading Comprehension is heavy. It throws four full-length, dense AF passages at you, each followed by a batch of multiple-choice questions.

The topics? All over the place. One minute it’s law or politics, then boom—it’s science, sociology, literature, or philosophy. Sometimes, you even get “comparative reading”, where you read two short passages and analyze how they relate (agree, disagree, vibe differently, etc.).

The real challenge here is reading with a purpose. You’re not just skimming—you’re scanning for tone, structure, argument shifts, and subtle details that can make or break your answers.

Questions often ask:

• What’s the author’s main point?
• What attitude or tone is being used?
• What’s implied but not directly said?
• How is the passage structured?

Skills tested:

• Deep reading focus
• Identifying arguments and counterarguments
• Drawing inferences
• Recognizing structure and tone

This section is all about mental endurance—keeping your brain engaged through 4 chunky passages without zoning out.

✍️ The Writing Sample

Okay, this one’s different. The Writing Sample isn’t scored and doesn’t affect your LSAT score directly, but law schools do see it. And even though most schools don’t weigh it heavily, some do glance at it to check your writing skills and reasoning style.

You’ll get a random scenario where someone has to make a decision—nothing political, controversial, or deep. Just a basic A vs. B situation, with a short list of pros and cons for each side. Your job? Pick one, argue for it, and explain why it’s better than the other.

You’re not being judged on which option you choose—but how you argue your case.

Example scenario:

• A company is deciding between two job candidates with different strengths.
• You have to write why they should hire one over the other.

Skills tested:

• Coherent, persuasive writing
• Organizing ideas logically
• Arguing both for and against a decision

Oh—and it’s done online, separately from your main test. You get 50 minutes, and you only have to do it once every 5 years. So if you’re retaking the LSAT later, you’re good.

4. New Changes (2024–2025 Vibes)

If you’ve been hearing about the LSAT from friends, Reddit, or your group chat, you might’ve caught wind that the test’s gone through some major updates recently. And yup—it’s true. The LSAT of 2025 looks different from the one people were taking even a couple years ago. Let’s break down the most important changes so you know exactly what’s up.

💻 The LSAT Is Fully Digital Now

Forget paper, pencils, and those old-school bubble sheets. The LSAT is 100% digital, and you get to choose how you want to take it:

• Option 1: At Home – You’ll use your own computer in a quiet space with a webcam and a stable internet connection. A proctor watches you virtually, and there are specific rules to follow (no snacks, no sticky notes, no leaving your seat).
• Option 2: At a Test Center – If your setup at home isn’t ideal or you just prefer the structure of a testing environment, you can book a spot at an approved testing location.

Either way, the test experience is meant to be as consistent as possible. Both versions use the same interface, same questions, same format—so it really comes down to your comfort level.

🎯 Logic Games Are Officially Gone

This is huge. The Analytical Reasoning section, better known as Logic Games, is no longer part of the LSAT as of August 2024. This section used to be infamous for its brain-twisting puzzles—think ordering people in a lineup or matching colors to different events. It was a struggle for a lot of people (and honestly kinda fun for some).

So why the change?

Back in 2019, a lawsuit was filed arguing that the Logic Games section wasn’t accessible to blind test takers because it relied heavily on visual diagramming. LSAC agreed to phase it out, and now it’s officially replaced by a second Logical Reasoning section.

Now instead of games, you get more arguments to analyze—which keeps things fair and keeps the focus on verbal reasoning.

📈 Test Limits Are in Effect

If you were thinking of taking the LSAT a dozen times just to experiment… yeah, that’s not a thing anymore. LSAC now limits how many times you can sit for the test:

• Up to 3 times per LSAC testing year (June 1 – May 31)
• Up to 5 times within the current and past 5 years
• Up to 7 times in your lifetime

🚨 And here’s the wildest part: If you ever get a perfect 180, LSAC won’t let you take it again—even if it was years ago and you’re feeling nostalgic. Once you hit that max score, they say you’ve officially “mastered” it.

There’s an appeals process for extreme cases (like medical emergencies), but for the average person, these limits are firm. The idea is to keep things fair and reduce score inflation from constant retesting.

📝 Writing Sample: Separate & Streamlined

One of the more chill updates: The writing section is now totally separate from the rest of the test. You can complete it before or after your official LSAT day, and it’s done online at your convenience (within a year of your exam).

• You get 50 minutes to write your response.
• It’s unscored, but law schools still see it.
• You only need to complete one writing sample every five years—so if you retake the LSAT within that window, you’re good to go.

This change makes test day a little less stressful, and it gives you more flexibility to plan your time. Just don’t forget to do it—your LSAT score won’t be released until your writing sample is submitted.

5. LSAT Scores: What Do They Even Mean?

Alright, let’s decode these LSAT scores because staring at a number like “162” with no context can feel a little… meaningless. But once you understand how it works, that score starts to carry a lot of weight—especially when you’re trying to figure out where you stand in the law school applicant pool.

🔢 The Basics

The LSAT score scale goes from 120 (lowest possible) to 180 (perfect). Everyone starts at 120, and every right answer adds to your raw score, which then gets converted (through a fancy process called scaling) into that 120–180 number.

Your score reflects how well you did compared to everyone else who took the test—not how many questions you got “right” in the classic school sense.

📊 What’s Considered a “Good” LSAT Score?

Well, that depends on where you’re trying to go. But here’s a general idea of how your score ranks nationally, based on percentiles:

• 151 = 50th percentile → Dead center. About half of test takers score below this, and half score above.
• 160 = 80th percentile → This is where things start looking competitive for solid law schools.
• 165 = 90th percentile → You’re in the top 10%, and now you’re a real contender for top-tier schools.
• 173 = 99th percentile → One of the best scores in the country. This is Ivy League territory.
• 178+ = Unicorn Status 🦄 → Practically flawless. Less than 0.1% of test takers hit this level.

Most students score somewhere between 145 and 160, which is totally fine for many law schools. But if you’re aiming for a school ranked in the top 50? You’ll probably want to aim for 160 or higher.

🎯 What Score Do You Need?

Here’s the tea: there’s no universal “good” LSAT score. It all depends on your target schools.

Some rough cutoffs based on law school tiers (2025 vibes):

Keep in mind, your GPA, personal statement, letters of rec, and life experience all matter too—especially if your LSAT isn’t sky-high. But when it comes to admissions data and law school rankings? The LSAT still pulls major weight.

📈 Multiple Scores? Here’s How Schools Handle It

One of the biggest LSAT myths is that schools average your scores. Nah. That used to be the case, but now most schools only care about your highest score—because that’s what they report to the American Bar Association (ABA) and U.S. News.

So if you take the LSAT more than once, it’s not the end of the world. In fact, strategic retesting can be a smart move if you’ve got time to improve.

👉 Pro tip: Schools will still see all your scores from the last five years, but unless there’s a huge drop (like a 170 followed by a 142), it won’t really hurt your app.

📅 When Do You Get Your Score?

After you test, your score usually drops in about three to four weeks. You’ll get an email from LSAC, and boom—it’s live on your account.

If something felt off during your test (technical issues, distractions, nerves), you can cancel your score within six days of the test date. But be careful—cancellations show up on your record, and you won’t know your score before canceling.

6. How Hard Is the LSAT Really?

Let’s keep it all the way honest: the LSAT is hard, but not in the way most people expect. You’re not gonna be quizzed on legal terms, Supreme Court decisions, or case law. In fact, you don’t need any prior knowledge about law to do well.

What makes the LSAT tough is that it’s a thinking test, not a knowledge test. It’s all about how you process information, spot patterns, and make logical decisions under pressure—and you’ve gotta do all that with a timer ticking down.

🧩 Why It Feels So Hard

The LSAT challenges people in ways school usually doesn’t. Most of us grew up learning how to memorize facts or write essays. The LSAT is like, “Nah, let’s test your raw reasoning.”

Here’s why people find it challenging:

• The content is dense and technical—passages feel like academic journal articles, and questions are super precise.
• Time pressure is real—you only get 35 minutes per section, and that clock moves fast.
• The logic is subtle—answers often seem similar, but only one is exactly right.
• There’s no fluff—if you zone out for 30 seconds, you might miss a key word that changes everything.

It’s designed to be uncomfortable. But it’s also designed to be learnable.

📈 What Makes People Succeed?

The secret isn’t being naturally brilliant—it’s about how you prepare.

People who crush the LSAT usually do a few key things:

• Practice consistently: They treat it like a skill, not a cram session. Think 1–3 hours a day, a few days a week, over a few months.
• Understand the question types: Every LSAT section follows repeatable patterns. Once you’ve seen enough of them, you start recognizing how the test “thinks.”
• Analyze mistakes deeply: Instead of just checking which answer was right, top scorers study why they got it wrong. They figure out their blind spots and fix them.

🧠 It’s not about grinding 10 hours a day—it’s about studying smarter, not longer.

🔄 Can You Actually Improve?

Yes, and that’s the good news. The LSAT is super coachable. It’s common for people to improve by 10–20 points or more with focused prep.

Your starting score doesn’t define your future score. Whether you’re hitting 145 or 160 on your first practice test, the gap between where you are and where you want to be can absolutely be closed—with time, strategy, and patience.

🎯 Real Talk: It’s a Mental Game Too

A lot of the LSAT challenge is psychological:

• Test anxiety can trip you up, especially if you’ve got big goals riding on your score.
• Mental stamina is real—2+ hours of focused logic and reading takes practice to build.
• Burnout is a thing if you overdo it or study inefficiently.

That’s why your mindset matters just as much as your study schedule. Staying calm, being kind to yourself when you mess up, and learning from your mistakes? That’s half the battle.

7. How Should You Prepare?

Let’s be real: prepping for the LSAT can feel like a whole side hustle. But you don’t need to overthink it or spend thousands of dollars to get a solid score. What you do need is a smart plan, the right resources, and consistency. That’s it.

This test is beatable, but only if you treat prep like a skill-building process—not just endless reading or random cramming.

📝 Start with Official PrepTests (Seriously)

Your best weapon in LSAT prep? Official LSAT PrepTests. These are real, retired tests published by the LSAC—which means they’re as close to the real thing as it gets.

Start by:

• Taking one timed PrepTest cold—no prep, just to see where you stand.
• Reviewing it deeply, not just scoring it. Understand why you missed each question.
• Creating a habit of drilling weak spots using questions from other official tests.

You can get several free PrepTests from the LSAC site, and more through paid bundles on platforms like LawHub. If your budget’s tight, those free tests are more than enough to build a foundation.

📚 Use Legit Materials Only

There are tons of LSAT books and courses out there—but not all of them are created equal. Stick to resources that are trusted by the LSAT community and built around real test logic.

Top picks:

• The LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim: Super student-friendly and actually easy to read.
• Powerscore Bibles (Logical Reasoning & Reading Comprehension): Deep dives into strategy, especially helpful if you’re detail-oriented.
• Khan Academy LSAT: It’s free, official, and great for visual learners. It’s partnered with LSAC, so the lessons and practice questions are on point.

If you like to learn by doing (and not just reading), Khan Academy + official tests is a killer combo. If you’re more of a structured, “I-need-a-plan” type, a book-based curriculum might work better.

📅 Build a Realistic Study Schedule

You don’t need to study 6 hours a day to succeed—but you do need a schedule. Even 8–12 weeks of focused prep can lead to big improvements if you’re consistent.

Try this basic breakdown:

• Weeks 1–2: Learn the test structure + try one full PrepTest.
• Weeks 3–6: Focus on section-specific practice (LR, RC), review mistakes, build skills.
• Weeks 7–8+: Mix full timed tests with targeted drills + endurance training.

Set goals each week. Track your progress. Don’t skip review days—those are actually more important than just doing tons of questions.

⏱ Practice Like It’s Game Day

Practicing questions casually is fine at first. But as test day gets closer, you need to replicate real conditions:

• No pausing
• No music or background noise
• No checking your phone mid-section
• Sit through full-length tests to build focus and stamina

The LSAT is mentally exhausting. Doing 35-minute sections is one thing—doing four back-to-back while staying sharp the whole time is another. You’ve gotta train your brain for that kind of endurance.

👥 Study Solo or With Help? Up to You

Some people love studying on their own, using books and YouTube breakdowns. Others prefer structured help through courses or private tutoring.

Here’s how to decide:

• Go solo if you’re disciplined, self-motivated, and have access to good materials.
• Try a course or tutor if you want accountability, need help staying on track, or keep getting stuck on the same question types.

Popular options include Blueprint, 7Sage, Kaplan, and Manhattan Prep. They vary in price and format, but all offer solid instruction. Some even have free trial classes or scholarships.

💸 On a budget? Mix free stuff (like Khan + Reddit’s r/LSAT + free official tests) with a used prep book or two. That combo can still get you into the 160s and beyond.

8. Does the LSAT Actually Matter?

Short answer? Yes—but it’s not the whole story. The LSAT definitely still plays a major role in law school admissions, but it’s not the only thing that matters. Think of it like this: it’s a key ingredient, but not the entire recipe.

Let’s break down exactly how much weight it holds—and where other parts of your app come in.

✅ Yes, It’s Still a Big Deal

At most U.S. and Canadian law schools, the LSAT is still one of the two biggest factors in your application. The other is your undergrad GPA.

Why does the LSAT matter so much?

• It’s standardized, so it gives schools a consistent way to compare applicants across different colleges and majors.
• It’s been shown (at least in LSAC’s research) to predict first-year law school performance better than GPA alone.
• It affects a school’s ranking. Law schools report the LSAT scores of admitted students to the American Bar Association (ABA) and U.S. News, so naturally, they care about keeping those numbers high.

So yeah, a high LSAT score can absolutely boost your chances—especially at top schools where competition is stacked.

❌ But It’s Not Everything

Here’s the part people often sleep on: your LSAT score doesn’t define your entire application. If you’re not scoring in the 170s, don’t panic. Law schools are human. They look at:

• Your personal statement (how well you write and why you’re applying)
• Letters of recommendation (what your professors or mentors say about you)
• Your resume and work experience
• Any life experiences, challenges, or personal stories that shaped you

If your LSAT isn’t as high as you want but the rest of your app is 🔥, you can still be a strong contender—especially at schools that take a more holistic approach to admissions.

And if you’ve got a killer GPA or unique background? That can help offset a slightly lower LSAT.

🔥 BONUS: LSAT-Optional Programs (Yup, They Exist)

More and more schools are experimenting with LSAT-optional or LSAT-waiver programs—especially for students with strong academic records.

A few examples:

• Georgetown Law offers a pathway for students with a 3.8+ GPA to apply without an LSAT score (usually under specific conditions).
• University of Michigan has special early admission tracks that waive the LSAT for students who’ve already proven themselves academically.

There are also some schools that accept GRE scores instead of the LSAT, which opens doors for applicants who might perform better on that test.

But heads up: these programs are limited and selective. They’re not loopholes—they’re tailored to specific situations, and the standards are still high.

🎓 Law School = More Than a Score

At the end of the day, the LSAT is a tool—not a measure of your worth or your future. It helps law schools make decisions, but once you’re in? It’s all about how you show up, hustle, and grow.

So yes, it’s worth studying for. But no, it’s not the end of the world if it’s not perfect. You’ve got more to offer than a number—and law schools know that.

9. How Much Does the LSAT Cost?

Okay, let’s talk money. Because before you even apply to law school, the LSAT hits you with some real financial commitments. Between registering for the test and sending your info to schools, the total can add up fast—especially if you’re also buying prep materials or planning multiple attempts.

Here’s a breakdown of what you’re really paying for:

💸 LSAT Registration Fee: $238

This is your ticket to take the test. Whether you’re testing at home or at a center, this flat fee is non-negotiable and required every time you register.

• Want to retake the LSAT? You’ll pay this amount again, every time.
• Rescheduling or changing your test center can cost extra, depending on how close you are to the test date.

🗃️ Credential Assembly Service (CAS): $207

The CAS is a whole separate fee, but it’s required by most law schools. Here’s why:

LSAC collects your transcripts, letters of recommendation, and LSAT scores, then bundles everything together into one neat report that’s sent to schools on your behalf.

• You only pay for CAS once per cycle, and it covers all your document processing.
• Each law school you apply to will also require a report fee, usually around $45 per school. So if you’re applying to, say, 8 schools? That’s another $360 right there.

💡 TLDR: CAS is where your full application lives. No CAS, no application.

💰 So What’s the Total?

If we’re doing the math (and we are), the bare minimum cost to take the LSAT and apply to just one law school is:

• LSAT Fee: $238
• CAS Fee: $207
• ➡️ Total: $445

But that’s if you’re only applying to one school—which, let’s be honest, most people don’t. Once you factor in report fees for multiple schools, the full cost of applying can easily hit $600–$1000+.

And that doesn’t include:

• Prep books or courses
• Practice tests
• Tech setup for digital testing
• Travel, if you test at a center

💵 Fee Waivers Are a Thing (And You Might Qualify)

LSAC knows not everyone can afford these costs, so they offer fee waivers for qualifying applicants. If money’s tight, this is definitely something to look into.

The LSAC Fee Waiver Program can cover:

• Up to 2 free LSATs
• Free CAS access
• Six law school report fees
• Access to some prep resources, including LawHub Advantage

To qualify, you usually need to show financial hardship, but the application isn’t too intense. If approved, it can save you hundreds of dollars—and reduce a lot of stress.

Apply through your LSAC account under the “Fee Waiver” tab.

10. Extra Fun Fact: LSAT Scores and High IQ Clubs 🧠

Okay, this part isn’t about law school admissions—but it’s a fun flex if you’re into brainy stuff. Believe it or not, your LSAT score can actually be used to qualify for membership in a few high-IQ societies. Yep, that LSAT score you’re grinding for might also be your ticket into some of the most exclusive brainiac clubs on the planet.

Let’s break it down:

🧠 What’s a High-IQ Society?

These are organizations made up of people who score in the top 1–5% of the population on intelligence tests. Membership is usually based on IQ test scores, but some societies accept standardized test scores as equivalents—including the LSAT.

These clubs aren’t just about bragging rights (though, yeah, that’s part of the appeal). They also host meetups, publish journals, and run discussion groups on everything from logic puzzles to philosophy to tech innovation.

💯 Which LSAT Scores Count?

Here are the main high-IQ clubs that accept LSAT scores as qualifying evidence—and what you’d need to get in:

Keep in mind: these groups usually only accept LSAT scores from before 2000, but some make exceptions for more recent test-takers depending on scoring norms and verification methods. It’s a bit niche, but if your score qualifies, it’s worth reaching out to see if they’ll accept it.

🤓 Why Would Anyone Join?

Honestly? For the bragging rights, the vibes, and the networking. It’s a cool conversation starter, especially in academic or STEM spaces. Plus, some people just like the idea of connecting with other folks who geek out over abstract thinking and deep discussions.

It’s not gonna get you into law school or boost your résumé (unless you’re applying for a job at MENSA HQ, lol), but if you hit one of those top-tier scores, why not have fun with it?

11. TL;DR (but actually, read the whole thing 😉)

• The LSAT is a digital logic-based test required by most law schools in the U.S. and Canada.
• It tests logical reasoning, reading comprehension, and writing (unscored).
• Your score ranges from 120–180, and top law schools want 165+.
• You can take it up to 5 times in 5 years.
• Prep with real tests, focus on patterns, and give yourself time to improve.
• It costs a couple hundred bucks but might be your ticket into your dream school (and career 👩🏽‍⚖️).

If law school is even a maybe for you, start getting comfy with the LSAT now. Whether you’re a future public defender, legal influencer, or just chasing the bag 💼—this test is your first real step.
