c. Exam Format The LSAT is a skills-assessment exam comprised of six sections, only four of which are scored. Each exam will have: •
Two scored sections of Logical Reasoning
•
One scored section of Analytical Reasoning and
•
One scored section of Reading Comprehension
In addition to these scored sections, each exam will also include: •
One unscored experimental section and
•
One unscored writing sample
The five scored sections contain anywhere between ninety-nine and one-hundred-three questions. Each section has a thirty-five-minute time limit; with the exception of the writing sample, all of the sections are multiple choice. Each multiple-choice question will have five answer choices from which to choose. Every LSAT has the same format. And all test-takers taking the exam during the same administration will have the same exam. The exam may appear in a different order, however. The only exception to this is students who sit for Sabbath exams. Since Sabbath exams are administered on a different day within the same week as the test administration, the exam is different. If you are unable to sit for the exam on Saturday for religious reasons, there is a special online registration process to get approval. Otherwise, you may register for the June exam, which is administered on a Monday.
