On the other hand, you may feel you could improve your current LSAT score. LSAC offers ample resources if you decide to retake the test, and you can upgrade to a LawHub Advantage to access an ample library of Official LSAT PrepTests. Registration for 2024-2025 LSAT cycle is open for all administrations through June 2025.
Getting Ready for the November 2024 LSAT!
Scheduling for the November 2024 LSAT opened on Tuesday, October 22. The November test is trending to be the largest administration in four years which means there is a high volume of test takers scheduling their test.
To try to minimize wait times during scheduling, we’re using staggered scheduling. We invite you to take a look at the scheduling windows so that you can plan ahead as you prepare to schedule your testing day and time. Keep in mind that even with staggered scheduling, it is highly likely that there will be some wait time.
Update on MacOS Sequoia
If you plan to take the LSAT, either in November or in the future, in the online, live remote-proctored environment, we are pleased to announce that the Prometric ProProctor live proctoring software will now support the newly released MacOs Sequoia.
If you plan to take the November 2024 LSAT remotely, the ProProctor live software is compatible with Microsoft or MacOS (excluding MacOS Ventura 13.0 to 13.21) on laptops or desktops.
Accommodation Requests for the January 2025 LSAT
The deadline to register for the January 2025 LSAT is December 3, which is also the deadline to request testing accommodations if you plan to register or have already registered for the test.
