New Tutorial Walks Through LSAT Accommodations Process

A new tutorial on LSAC.org provides a step-by-step guide to applying for accommodated testing. Prepared jointly by Communications and Accommodated Testing staff, the tutorial is located in the LSAT/Accommodated Testing section of LSAC.org. Based on the questions that are most often asked, the animated screens walk users through completing the request process. The tutorial specifically discusses completion of the Candidate and Evaluator Forms and is part one of what will be a series of tutorials on requesting test accommodations. Part two will show additional forms that some candidates use. View the demo.


Acceptable IDs for Admission to the LSAT

Effective with the June 2009 administration, only a current, valid (not expired) government-issued passport book or driver's license containing a recent and recognizable photo and signature are acceptable IDs for admission to the LSAT. Government-issued employment IDs, passport cards and student IDs are not acceptable.


Important Regulations for Test Takers

Recent changes to test center regulations, including lists of permitted and forbidden items, can be found in the 2009–2010 LSAT & LSDAS Information Book  PDF Icon and on LSAT admission tickets. Bringing prohibited items into the test room may result in the confiscation of such items by the test supervisor, a warning, dismissal from the test center, and/or cancellation of a test score by LSAC. Ignorance of these new regulations will not be considered an excuse for their violation.

Some of the most significant regulations are listed below:
