The Law School Admission Council (LSAC) has announced plans to administer the 2021 LSAT-India over two weeks starting 10 May 2021, using a proven online format that will allow law school aspirants to take the test in the safety and convenience of their own homes. To enable students to pursue their education goals despite the ongoing pandemic, the LSAT-India test will be administered through an online test delivery system with artificial intelligence-assisted remote proctoring to ensure the integrity and validity of the test. The LSAT-India test will be delivered on several days and slots starting 10 May 2021, to accommodate the large number of anticipated test takers.
Speaking about the LSAT-India 2021 test, LSAC’s President & CEO Kellye Testy said, “We are committed to ensuring that students can pursue their educational goals despite the ongoing pandemic. We made the switch from the traditional paper-and-pencil test to an online in-home test last spring in response to the COVID-19 emergency. Thousands of students successfully took the online 2020 LSAT-India this summer, and we are using that experience to make the 2021 LSAT-India even better for students. The LSAT-India is accepted by a large and growing number of top law schools all across India, so it’s a great choice for students who want to maximize their law school opportunities.”
