The online LSAT test typically falls on Fridays and Saturdays, while paper tests are administered on the following Tuesdays.

Now that you know the LSAT test dates, you must decide when to take the test. Most law schools have rolling admissions; applying earlier in the application cycle (September or October) can boost your chances of acceptance.
To ensure your LSAT score reports are ready for submission, you should take the LSAT in August or September in the year you hope to apply to law school at the latest.
However, you should also factor in the need for a potential retake; if you want to ensure you submit the highest LSAT scores possible, you may want to plan to take the test sometime the year before you hope to apply to law school (in your third undergraduate year).
Preparing for your LSAT test date requires a consistent study schedule over many weeks. Since you'll likely take the LSAT's online version (the primary test dates), the LSAC recommends four steps to ensure you’re prepped and ready on LSAT test day.
To take the LSAT online, you need:
As soon as the scheduling sign-up opens, you can schedule a testing time with ProctorU. Please ensure to schedule your time at least two days before your test: scheduling closes at 11:59 p.m. ET on that day.
Since the LSAT is administered by LSAC’s LawHub website and proctored remotely, you can familiarize yourself with the test’s content and delivery with official prep tests in your account.
About two days before the test, you should see that “a new ‘LSAT’ link is available in the left-hand menu of your LawHub account. Selecting this ‘LSAT’ link should bring up a message confirming that you are eligible to take the LSAT.”
Ensure you have the following before the test:
Ensure your space is quiet, well-lit, private, and free of prohibited items. With a stable Internet connection and a surface to work on, you’re ready to ace the LSAT!
Knowing the LSAT test dates is your first step to acing the test and getting into the law school of your dreams. Whether you’re taking the LSAT in 2022 or 2023, ensure you register for your test on time. Good luck!
