Test Day Essentials
For the online, remotely proctored LSAT
Compatible Computer
To take the LSAT in an online, remotely proctored format, you’ll need a compatible laptop or desktop computer, a webcam, a microphone, and the latest Google Chrome web browser.
Quiet Place to Test
You can take the LSAT at home or in another quiet, well-lit, private room. Make sure the room has a strong and stable internet connection and contains a table or desk and a chair.
Valid Photo ID
To verify your identity, you’ll need to present a physical, valid international passport or U.S./Canadian government-issued photo ID. The first and last name on your ID must match the legal name associated with your LSAC account.
Make sure to review the Candidate Agreement and the steps for a successful test day too.
