The History of the LSAT

Sometimes when I would study for the LSAT I often wondered what was the history behind the exam and how it came to be. I noticed the first LSAT with a pdf file was in 1991 and I always wondered how did individuals become lawyers prior to the first LSAT. I found a pdf article about the topic and wanted to share it.

    I find myself wondering about the LSAT authors. Am I ever standing next to one in the grocery or sitting in my car next to one at a red light?

    What I want to know is how a person becomes a LSAT writer and what their process for creating questions is.
