Does the Lsat test mere ability or time (and money) spend on gaining ability? It seems to me that it is more of the ladder. Some get high diagnostics and score well. But a lot of people do not and have to (and do) spend a lot time to get there. Most of the persons on the podcasts spend 1+ year and many used a tutor (who make 10x as much as I make an hour). Non-podcasters do to. So, how objective is this score really? I just do not think it is very objective when time and money spend is unequal across the testing population. Other measures are not wholly objective either. But why add another non-objective measure?
Some above see it as an opportunity, to make up for a best semester. I think, if you have a bad semester, write an addendum. If you have two, write on as well. If you have more than that, then I think, other things being equal, somebody with a higher gpa should get prioritized.
For how many others is this test a burden? I am working full time and am EXHAUSTED after studying for 7-8 months. I cannot take a few months off. My college gpa is high. I have work experience. Why do I have to prove myself yet again?
Law schools are racially and economically non-diverse. Will removing the lsat change that? Maybe not. But with those numbers, its a hard sell to call it a significant contributor to social mobility in the US, especially when it tracks time and money spend and we have not tried not having it.
The skills the lsat tests are important. But how it tests them is so artificial: the ridiculous arguments and the unnecessary time constraint and the trick answer choices. While the skills may transfer, the material upon which they must be used does not.
I hope they make it optional and I hope that schools comply.
