do you think the risks of this new format outweigh any potential cons? like no in person test date for a while or whatever

And if u were planning to take april will you take the flex?

    I do think that this is the best possible solution. I am sure that there are risks involved, but I initially wanted to take the March administration and then the April after that. I want to be able to submit my applications as early as possible in the cycle for 2021 and I want to get the LSAT behind me so that I can focus on my admissions essays. Given that I have no idea when an in-person LSAT administration will be feasible again, I think that the LSAT-flex is the best that can be made of a bad situation. However, I am very interested to hear what other people think on this matter!

    Im reading it as it is three 35 minute sections in its entirety. So minus two sections...so we take 3 rather than 5 sections. Am I reading it wrong or is this right?

    Not sure. I need more information first, especially about the scoring.

    Maybe it would be helpful to ask LSAC if the flex test counts toward the limit of 3 tests per year. For those are considering taking it and have the time/money for a retake but don't want to "waste" a test sitting

    I really don't think we have enough information from LSAC yet to make an informed decision. It is very frustrating, because there's a very real possibility that we won't get this information by the time at which we have to decide to defer.
