• Students must register for the test before the registration deadline, as there is no late registration deadline. Students are encouraged to register a month before the deadline to make sure they have a spot.
• There is an option to cancel the registration and receive a full refund if the student cancels before the registration deadline.
• The student can also reschedule the test before the registration deadline at no extra charge to them.
• If the test is rescheduled within seven days after the registration deadline for test administration, the fee will amount to $145
• If the candidate reschedules the test 7 days after the registration deadline to 1 day before the test day, they will not get any refund.
• Rescheduling less than a day from the test day will result in the cancelation of the test, and there will be no refund. The candidate will be required to register from scratch and pay the entire $238 fee.

Retaking the LSAT

The cost remains the same for candidates who wish to retake the LSAT test: $238 for registration. However, candidates cannot retake the test more than 5 times during the last 5 testing years and 7 times in their lifetime, even if they have canceled their score. They also cannot retake the LSAT if they have achieved a perfect 180 score on any reportable test.

Registering for the LSAT

Candidates must create a free LSAC account and register for the LSAT. They should also subscribe to the CAS, which is valid for 5 years. Subscription to CAS costs $207 which is separate from the test costs. Although optional, it is recommended for candidates to subscribe to CAS. All schools accept applications through CAS, and the majority of the schools make it mandatory to use CAS. Each report sent via CAS costs an additional $45 per report.

Format of LSAT

The test is conducted in two parts:

1. The first part consists of 4 multiple-choice sub-sections. This part includes reading comprehension and logical reasoning sections.
2. The second part, LSAT Writing, can be completed up to 8 days before the multiple-choice exam and is not graded.

LSAT Scores

The LSAT score is based on the questions that have been answered correctly. The weightage of the test questions is the same, and there is no deduction for incorrect answers. The scaled score ranges from 120 to 180, with an average score of 150. The candidate will also receive a percentile ranking along with the LSAT score. This ranking would help compare the candidate's score with everyone who has appeared for the LSAT in the last three years. Scores will be posted on the Status page of the candidate's LSAT account, and they will be notified via email.
