What is the MCAT?

What is the LSAT?
The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is an integral part of law school admission and tests the skills necessary for success in the first year of law school. These skills include reading comprehension, reasoning, and writing, and the test results help admission decision makers and candidates alike gain valuable insight regarding law school readiness. The LSAT is the single best predictor of first-year law school performance and helps candidates determine if law school is right for them. While some law schools accept tests other than the LSAT for admission, students who want to maximize their chances are encouraged to take the LSAT.
