how/when/where do we select the date and time we want to write it
Per LSAC's email: "We will open the scheduling sign-up process in late June, so that you can select the available time that works best for you. We will be sending out more information and instructions prior to that time."

When is the deadline to decide if we want to take the coupon instead of testing in July?
Oddly enough, I don't think this info was included in the email they sent out.

We hope you are staying safe and healthy during this challenging time. Because the well-being of our test takers remains a top priority for us, we have been monitoring the COVID-19 guidance from national and local public health authorities closely.
Given the continued uncertainty over how the COVID-19 emergency will evolve over the next two months, we have made the decision to offer the online, remotely proctored LSAT-Flex in July, and cancel the in-person LSAT that was scheduled for July 13 in the U.S. and Canada.
As you probably know, we created the LSAT-Flex to give candidates the opportunity to earn an LSAT score even though in-person testing is not possible due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You can learn more on our LSAT-Flex page.
The July LSAT-Flex will be administered during the week of July 12. Most test takers will test on either Sunday, July 12, or Monday, July 13, with a small number of tests occurring later in the week based on specific remote proctoring requirements. Currently, we are targeting July 30 as the score release date for all test takers, regardless of when they test during the week of July 12.
Because you are currently registered for the July 13 LSAT, you will be automatically registered for the July LSAT-Flex that is taking its place. Please visit your LSAC account and submit the online form to confirm your interest in taking the July LSAT-Flex or to opt out of the July LSAT-Flex and receive a coupon for any future test between August 2020 and April 2021. If we do not hear from you, you will be automatically registered for the July LSAT-Flex.
As you may know, we recently delivered the first LSAT-Flex administration in the U.S. and Canada, which was generally quite successful. Nearly 10,000 candidates took the LSAT-Flex between May 18 and 22. While some test takers experienced technical difficulties with their computers, internet connection, or the proctoring process, 99% of test takers who started the test successfully completed it. We are using the experience of delivering the May exam to make future LSAT-Flex administrations even better.
LSAC is working to help every test taker have the equipment and other resources they need to take the LSAT-Flex. If you do not have the necessary equipment or an appropriate place to test, you can make note of your situation via the same online form in your LSAC account no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, Tuesday, June 23, 2020. We will work with you to try to address your needs.
Because the July LSAT-Flex is an online, remotely proctored test, we are able to offer a variety of test start times on those dates for you to choose from, based upon what works best for your schedule. We will open the scheduling sign-up process in late June, so that you can select the available time that works best for you. We will be sending out more information and instructions prior to that time.
In the meantime, we encourage you to visit our LSAT-Flex Frequently-Asked-Questions page, where you can find more information about the LSAT-Flex, including answers to your questions about the test’s format, security, and technical requirements, as well as how best to prepare.
If you want to familiarize yourself with the format and content of the LSAT-Flex, we recommend using the free Official LSAT Prep practice tests available on LSAC’s LawHub.
In addition to these changes to the July test, LSAC has today opened up registration for all of the remaining tests in the 2020-21 testing cycle. While it is too soon to predict how the ongoing COVID-19 emergency may affect the format or dates of these tests, please know that we will continue doing everything we can to support our law school candidates and provide testing opportunities, while following public health guidance to help protect the safety of test takers and the broader community.
We also announced today that the prices for all LSAC services – testing, CAS, school reports, cancellation fees, and other services – will remain at their 2019-20 levels. While the cost of providing many of these services continues to rise, LSAC is committed to closing the gap through greater efficiency in order to keep candidate costs as low as possible.
Stay safe and stay focused on your legal education journey — the world needs your voice and your advocacy now more than ever!

Hi everyone, they mention a coupon that can be applied to test dates between August 2020 and April 2021 - is this coupon amount for $200?
Yes I believe so. It should cover the cost of an exam.

That is what I would think. But ultimately can't be sure!
