Summary:

  • In light of the COVID-19 public health emergency, we will be offering an online, remotely proctored version of the LSAT — called the LSAT-Flex — during the week of May 18 for test takers who were registered for the April test. 
  • Candidates who were registered for the April 2020 LSAT will be automatically registered to take the LSAT-Flex that will be administered during the week of May 18 unless they choose to receive a coupon to use for a different LSAT date. If you wish to proceed, please take a moment to review the technical requirements, and fill out the April 2020 Rescheduling Options online form to let us know whether or not you think you will need assistance. We are committed to broad access and will work with all test takers with disabilities to see that their accommodation needs are met under the circumstances. We will also work with any candidates who may need our assistance with access to computer equipment or other necessary hardware.
  • April registrants who do not wish to take the May LSAT-Flex should use the April 2020 Rescheduling Options online form to indicate that they would prefer to receive a coupon to use for a different LSAT date. This coupon will cover the full price of the test date it is used for. This form must be submitted no later than Friday, April 17, 2020, at 11:59 p.m. (ET).
  • The May LSAT-Flex will be administered during the week of May 18, 2020. We expect that most test takers will test on either Monday, May 18, or Tuesday, May 19, with a small number of tests occurring later in the week based on specific remote proctoring requirements.
  • May LSAT-Flex scores will be released on the same day for all test takers, regardless of when they test during the week of May 18.
