[Shaleen]

The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is a half-day standardized test administered four times each year at designated testing centres throughout the world.

The LSAT is designed to assess reading comprehension, logical, and verbal reasoning proficiencies.

There are three ways in which your LSAT score is presented:

1. Raw LSAT Score

2. LSAT Scaled Score

3. LSAT Percentile

Raw LSAT Score

Your Raw LSAT Score is simply the number of questions that you got right.

Each LSAT will typically have 100 to 103 questions, and your Raw LSAT Score is a number between 0 and that maximum of 100 to 103.

LSAT Scaled Score

Raw LSAT Scores are converted into the LSAT Scaled Scores, which ranges from 120 to 180.

LSAT Percentile

The LSAT Percentile for a score is based on the distribution of scores for the three-year period prior to the year in which the score is reported.
