Episode Description

Dave and Jon are here to offer guidance in these uncertain times, talking through the March LSAT cancellation, the (seemingly-inevitable) April cancellation, and administrations in the months that follow. That includes a discussion of a potential May LSAT, as well as the possibility that the exam moves entirely remote and allows you to test from home. There’s also an analysis of how this situation is likely to affect applicants through the remainder of this cycle.

Episode Timestamps

  • 0:00 – Intro. “Don’t Stand So Close To Me” by The Police is the soundtrack to our current social distancing state (although we had many choices!). And of course Dave and Jon both are drinking Corona beer.
  • 4:14 – This week in the LSAT world (other than the March cancellation) includes a new LSAC data podcast and the release of February LSAT scores.
  • The March 2020 LSAT Cancellation
  • 7:20 – The big news of the day is the cancellation of the March LSAT. The guys break down how the decision to cancel the test came to be and what the main points of LSAC’s announcement entail.
  • 17:35 – What about April? A discussion of how likely it is that the next test will be cancelled as well. Will there be refunds for people who signed up for March and can’t take the April test?
  • 24:40 – What happens with the other upcoming tests? Will there be a May LSAT now? What could happen with the June test? Could they add more tests later in the year?
  • 33:45 – Could they potentially administer the LSAT online? Not any time soon but at least they are exploring it.
  • 42:00 – How is LSAC working with law schools and how does this situation change admissions deadlines, and did Dave’s tweet cause them to explore this idea?
  • 51:25 – Outro
