The Law School Admissions Test (LSAT), designed by the Law School Admissions Council (LSAC), is a major standardized test used in determining the eligibility of applicants to American Bar Association-approved law schools in the United States. It's a grueling half-day examination, consisting of five thirty-five minute sections of multiple-choice questions, and advance preparation is crucial for successful completion. A large variety of LSAT preparation courses are available online, many of them free. The task of preparing for the LSAT will require a significant amount of time and effort, but the resources are available for the student who wishes to use online materials.
