LSAT Inbox

Welcome to the LSAT Inbox! This is a weekly blog series that answers frequently asked questions about the LSAT®. We encourage you to check back often for answers to more questions you may have as you prepare for the test.

Why is LSAC changing the formatting of certain questions on the LSAT?

In the past, when the answer to a question was an exception or something that failed to satisfy a condition, we presented key terms in the question with capitalized letters. For example, “Which one of the following CANNOT be true?”

Starting with the August administration, these terms will be presented in lowercase bold. For example, “Which one of the following cannot be true?”

The purpose of this change is to make the LSAT more accessible to test takers with disabilities who need assistive technology, such as a screen reader.

How similar is the formatting of LawHub PrepTests to the LSAT?

LawHub PrepTests use the official LSAT interface. This means the formatting of the PrepTests and functionality of the interface are exactly the same as what you will experience on test day.

Does it look bad to law schools if I change the date of my LSAT after registering?

Test date changes are available up until the deadline for each administration (fees may apply). You can find more information about deadlines here.

Law schools will not be able to see if you choose to change your LSAT registration to a different administration.
