Self-study
Hi! I've only taken the LSAT at a test centre before but I'll be taking it remotely at home for the first time this week. I was wondering if anyone with testing accommodations could tell me a bit about their remote testing experience, particularly with stop/start breaks? Is there a pause button I can access whenever? How do I get the proctor's attention, and do I have to do that every time I take a break, even for just a few seconds?
Additionally, I've read all the information on LSAC's website about remote testing, but is there anything else that I should be aware of/prepared for?
Thank you so much!

Hello! I took the remote test with accommodations last September. So for me, I used the chat option to text my proctor. They explain everything to you so that was a big help. I believe that if you walk around or leave the room, you will have to scan your room all over again. I only used my break to use the bathroom and had to show my room all over again. Just ask if in doubt! Like makeherproud commented, you will need to ask the proctor first and then they will give further instructions. If anything, have a webcam that you can easily move around to be able to show everything in your room.
Hi! i haven't personally taken tests with accommodations before but I have seen comments saying that the proctor must be the one to pause for you. You would simply grab their attention by speaking/notifying them to stop the time. Hopefully someone can verify if this is true or not, but GOOD LUCK ON YOUR TEST!!!
