The LSAT is an integral part of the law school admission process in the United States, Canada, and a growing number of other countries.

Test Format

The test consists of five 35-minute sections of multiple-choice questions.

There are three multiple-choice question types in the LSAT:

Reading comprehension questions measure the ability to read, with understanding and insight, examples of lengthy and complex materials similar to those commonly encountered in law school.
Analytical reasoning questions measure the ability to understand a structure of relationships and to draw logical conclusions about that structure.
Logical reasoning questions assess the ability to analyze, critically evaluate, and complete arguments as they occur in ordinary language.
