The LSAT (Law School Admission Test) is a standardized exam required for admission to most law schools in the United States, Canada, and some other countries. It is designed to evaluate critical skills necessary for success in legal studies, including logical reasoning, reading comprehension, and persuasive writing. The test includes two scored Logical Reasoning sections, one Reading Comprehension section, and an unscored experimental section used to test new questions. Additionally, there is an LSAT Writing component, completed separately online, which requires examinees to present and support an argument.
You should take the LSAT if you are applying to law schools in the United States or Canada, particularly those that are accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA). The LSAT is a key component of the admissions process and is often required to be considered for entry into competitive law programs. It is especially important for individuals pursuing a career in the legal field, such as becoming an attorney, judge, legal consultant, or policy advisor. The exam serves as a reliable measure of your analytical thinking, reading comprehension, and logical reasoning abilities — all of which are essential skills for success in law school and the legal profession.
Section | Questions | Time | Weight (% of Total Score) | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Reading Comprehension | 27 | 35 minutes | ~25% | Four sets of reading passages (one comparative). Tests main ideas, interpretation, and analysis. |
Analytical Reasoning (Logic Games) | 25 | 35 minutes | ~25% | Four logic games requiring grouping, ordering, and matching elements to make logical deductions. |
Logical Reasoning (Arguments) | ~25 per section (2 sections) | 35 minutes each | ~50% (both sections combined) | Presents short arguments. Tests ability to identify assumptions, find flaws, and evaluate reasoning. |
Unscored Experimental Section | Varies | 35 minutes | Not scored | An extra section (Reading, Logical, or Analytical) used to test new questions. Not included in final score. |
LSAT Writing Section | 1 essay | 35 minutes (taken separately online) |
Not scored | Decision‑based prompt where you choose between two options and support your reasoning. Reviewed by law schools. |
In the two scored Logical Reasoning sections (24–26 questions each), you’ll encounter short “stimuli” — concise arguments or sets of facts/opinions — followed by questions that ask you to identify the argument’s structure, spot hidden assumptions or flaws, strengthen or weaken the reasoning, or draw valid inferences. These sections reward precision: the sharper your ability to dissect and critique an argument, the higher your score will soar.
This section challenges you with three single passages plus one pair of shorter passages (each ~500 words), for a total of 26–28 questions. You’ll need to trace each author’s line of reasoning, distinguish their viewpoint from other perspectives, and anticipate where the argument is headed. Success here hinges on reading for structure and purpose—identifying main ideas, interpreting details, and drawing justified conclusions.
Scattered among your three scored sections is an unscored “experimental” section—either Logical Reasoning or Reading Comprehension. You won’t know which one it is, so give every section your full attention. LSAC uses this trial run to vet new questions for future tests. Remember: guessing which section is experimental only distracts you. Stay focused, treat every question as if it counts, and you’ll perform at your peak throughout the exam.
Administered online separately from the multiple–choice exam, the LSAT Writing section gives you 15 minutes to brainstorm via guided prompts and 35 minutes to craft an argumentative essay. You’ll analyze a decision‑based scenario and argue convincingly for one of two options, using the facts provided. Although unscored, your writing sample is sent to law schools alongside your score—so clear logic, structured organization, and persuasive reasoning are key.
The LSAT is a 3‑hour, computer‑based exam (not including breaks) delivered primarily on tablets at official test centers. In addition to the in‑person format, select test dates offer a fully remote, proctored version you can take from home. Regardless of delivery mode, you’ll encounter the same fixed sequence of sections—Logical Reasoning, Analytical Reasoning (Logic Games), Reading Comprehension, and an unscored experimental section—so the structure and pacing remain identical.
Your raw score (the number of questions you answer correctly) is converted on a 120–180 scale, ensuring that scores across different administrations are comparable. Percentiles indicate how you performed relative to other LSAT takers: for instance, a scaled score of 170 typically lands you in the 97th percentile. The median score hovers around 152, which corresponds to the 50th percentile, meaning that half of examinees score above and half below this mark.
“Good” LSAT scores vary by law school. The most prestigious programs—Harvard, Yale, Stanford—often expect applicants to achieve 170 or higher. Many strong regional and national schools seek scores in the 160s, whereas a 150–155 range can still open doors at less competitive or specialized institutions. Because there’s no universal passing threshold, always verify each JD program’s published LSAT guidelines when setting your target score.
You’re allowed a maximum of three LSAT attempts within any single testing year, five attempts over five consecutive years, and seven attempts over your lifetime. If you ever achieve the perfect 180, you’re ineligible to retake the exam for the next five years. There’s no mandatory waiting period between attempts—once you receive your score, you can register for the next sitting immediately if you choose. However, before signing up again, think carefully: will additional studying genuinely boost your score, or might it simply add stress and expense? Keep in mind that different law schools handle multiple scores in different ways. Some will see every score you’ve ever earned; others will consider only your highest. When deciding whether to retake the LSAT, check each program’s policy and weigh the potential benefits against the time and effort required.
