In such cases, we will notify law schools of the cancellation and arrange a retest at no charge on the next regularly scheduled test date. LSAC will investigate and reserves the right to cancel any test score if, in our opinion, there is any question as to its validity. When the validity of a score is questioned by LSAC, we will notify the test taker of the reasons for questioning the score and we will provide options appropriate to the specific circumstances.
If you are discovered to be in possession of or otherwise using a prohibited electronic device during the test, you may be issued an LSAT Violation Notice and the proctor may terminate your test session. Such violations will be grounds for cancellation of your test score, and you may be subject to an LSAC investigation that may lead to a finding of misconduct or irregularity.
LSAC will enforce this policy from the time you complete the security check-in procedure for your test until the time that your proctor announces the conclusion of your test session.
Any test taker observed reading or working in the wrong LSAT section or working beyond the time limit in a test section is engaging in prohibited behavior. If you are observed or suspected of engaging in any prohibited behavior, the test proctor may discontinue your test and log their observations on an irregularity report for submission to LSAC.
At its sole discretion, LSAC reserves the right to review irregularity reports and take action in response. As a result of an irregularity report being issued, LSAC may elect not to score your test or to cancel your previously reported test score.
Generally, no. The law schools will credit the high or only score in both situations, and they will not hold a cancellation against you. So, if you retake and you jump 3 points or lose 3 points , the law schools will consider only your highest score.
If you cancel and then retake, they will not draw any adverse inferences about your cancellation and will credit your score. The only situation in which they will have questions is if your score jump is significant — 5 or more points. In those circumstances, the admissions committees will want to see an addendum providing the context for how that big jump happened. Obviously, they would need no such explanation if you cancelled the first score, because they would never see it.
Should i cancel? I think keep your score in this situation. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. Type above and press Enter to search. Press Esc to cancel.
