LSAT Test Preparation

Every LSAT test has close to 101 questions. Your score is determined by the number of questions you answered correctly. This is called your raw score. The raw score is then convereted using a Sore Conversion Chart into a scaled score. Each LSAT test that is given has its own unique chart. The chart reflects the relative difficulty of that particular test. This is especially important because if this was not done, your score might be lower than another applicant who took an easier test when you actually have a better understanding of the material tested. This means admissions departments can look at 2 different tests from different test dates and know that they are scored equally.

Here is a real world example of this: The June LSAT test was more difficult than the December test. So the June Conversion Chart will scale the raw scores ìloser.î The LSAT score can range from 120 to 180. 120 is the lowest and 180 is the highest possible score. Thus, a 180 might mean missing 1 question on the December test but missing 4 on the June test still results in a 180 score.

here is an example conversion chart for the June 2002 LSAT test
