Writing Sample August Test

Future Dyslexic Lawyer

Hi guys! I have done a lot of research but I wanted to make sure what I am doing regarding the writing sample is okay!
I am signed up for the LSAT next week (pray for me). I know the writing sample opened already, but I want to focus on studying for the test and wait to worry about the writing section until after. I know not completing the writing sample ASAP may release your score later (but in my particular situation I am not in any rush to get my score back). SO, is it okay to start studying for the writing sample, and then take the writing sample a week or two after my actual test? I am just a bit confused if there is an actual deadline for completing the sample. Does anyone know any information about this? Thanks so much!

If you don't need your score back ASAP, there's no need to rush, you should be fine doing it a week or two after the exam. Just make sure to get a sample in at least 3 weeks before you need your score released.

Question - how do you know when the Writing portion is complete? Do they send you an email that it's been processed, or do you just check LSAC periodically?
