So I'm registered to take the August LSAT and as I'm studying I've noticed it's more helpful to either be able to read it aloud or be able to have a physical copy in front of me. I assumed writing the LSAT in person in a writing centre meant it would be a pen-and-paper test however I just found out you'd still be writing it digitally. I have since decided I prefer to write it in person in a writing centre and would prefer a pen and paper test however, looking at the LSAC website I will need to apply for accommodations.

My questions now will follow: (1) do I have enough time to apply for accommodations and still be approved before having to write the LSAT in August? and (2) I don't have any disability/ diagnosis I notice that it helps me better understand what's being said, do I have to apply for accommodations with a Qualified Professional form?

In other words, is the only way to get this accommodation through having a diagnosed disability?

Thank you!
