If you qualify for accommodations you can request to have the experimental section removed. I had some great, beneficial accommodations, but wasn't aware this is even a thing. Wish someone would've told me, so grabbing some karma points hopefully and passing this along. Also, @7sage, you should add 'accommodations' as a discussion topic.

so there would only be 3 sections of the test instead of 4?

What do you mean ? How can we do that?
You can go to LSAC's website and learn more about the process for requesting accommodations.

Thanks for the information! Would I have to complete a new accommodations request for this? Or is it an additional accommodations request?
Additional. You would keep any accommodations you've been previously granted as well as get the experimental removed. The only reason it would be considered "new" would be if you want to throw out all your previous accommodations.

Is this something that law schools will be able to see? If you're able to remove it via accommodations, would there be any downsides to that from the application perspective (could it be seen undermining the strength of your application or your capabilities, etc)?
LSAC legally can't disclose any info on accommodations. My LSAT looks the same to schools as someone without accommodations.

Wow thank you for this information! How can you request? Do you specify that you would like it removed? Who should you contact?
Thank you a million!!!
There is a formal process of requesting accommodations. You can find info on LSAC's website-- basically you give LSAC a list of stuff you need based on recommendations by your provider... based on a specific need/diagnosis. Your provider letter should outline support for your requests. You can request anything as an accommodation. There isn't a set list of options to choose from. Hope that helps

It's not on the form in the sense that it's box you check. You manually go in and add accommodations you're requesting based on the recommendation of your provider.

no, LSAC will not show law schools about any accommodations.
