Admissions seeing Lsat Date

stephmp1296

I’m a military spouse and I have been studying for about two years now! My scores are very competitive and I was planning on taking the January test but my husband just got word that we may be moving to Belgium for a year or two depending on the contract! I was wondering how bad it was if I took the exam but waited those two years to apply to schools? I didn’t know if the admissions offices see the dates that the exams were taken on the application! Any help is appreciated!

I don't think it should matter too much, considering that LSAT scores are valid for 5 years. The admissions office does see the date of the exam, but it shouldn't affect how they view you as a candidate! If you want, you can add an addendum explaining why you took two years off between the test and applying.
