  Did you have testing accommodations for the SAT or ACT? If so, you are pre-approved for the LSAT. You just need to submit a request form. https://www.lsac.org/lsat/lsac-policy-accommodations-test-takers-disabilities?gclid=Cj0KCQjwxdSHBhCdARIsAG6zhlVOeUTNuE5GEvZ_kHwQQcnMs1NaC37zoVkeuecN6YE7iFDY7xnE_C8aAjyAEALw_wcB

  The LSAC hub page for accommodation is here and definitely worth reading through if you're considering accommodations, but the page you're most interested in is probably this one.

  If you've received accommodations in the past on a big standardized test (like the SAT or ACT), then it seems like your request for LSAT accommodations is more likely to be accepted.

  Otherwise you'll need to fill out multiple forms, including "Evidence of Disability." I think ADHD, partial/full blindness, and Dyslexia are common disabilities for accommodations but this is purely anecdotal.

  To be honest the LSAC site doesn't seem very forthcoming about what sorts of requests will or won't be accepted. They're reviewed very much on a case-by-case basis and ultimately the only way to find out if you can get accommodations is by submitting all the paperwork and getting a response.

  Also relevant- if you do get accommodations, law schools don't know that. If the LSAC determines that you should receive them, there's really no reason not to use them.
