But for students with learning differences, the right score is the one that reflects your true ability — not what a timed test under pressure produced.

The LSAT Is Ending Remote Testing, But Not for Students Who Have Exceptional Need
There are exceptions to this policy, because testing centers are not built to meet the needs of every student.
Private rooms are scarce — and demand far exceeds supply
Students approved for private rooms often face:
Limited availability
Long waitlists
Forced rescheduling
Travel burdens

Why One-Size-Fits-All LSAT Strategies Don’t Work and How Personalized Prep Changes Outcomes
