Several February LSAT Testing Centers Closed Due to Nemo

Another LSAT administration, another weather delay.

Just four months after Hurricane Sandy caused a delay in the release of October LSAT scores, a blizzard in the northeast United States has forced LSAC to close a number of February LSAT testing centers. The full list of LSAT testing centers that will be closed can be found here. As of Friday morning there are eight states affected: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. Three February LSAT testing centers in Canada have also been closed.

If you were scheduled to take the February LSAT in one of the affected LSAT testing centers, you should receive a notification from LSAC about the situation, as well as an email within a week of when and where your rescheduled LSAT will take place.

LSAC: All LSATs Will Now Feature Two Pages for Logic Games

As June LSAT test-takers may recall, the latest LSAT administration by the Law School Admissions Council featured, for the first time ever, two pages for Analytical Reasoning.

Turns out, it wasn’t an accident.

LSAC Director of Communications Wendy Margolis confirmed today through email that all future administrations of the LSAT would henceforth feature two pages for logic games.

Although this isn’t the kind of news story that will open The Situation Room, in the world of LSAT this is quite significant. Aside from higher printing costs for LSAC, it means you’ll have more room on logic games on LSAT test day to take notes/write out diagrams/doodle LSAT proctors with unibrows and devil horns. It also shows that with enough protest, LSAT test-takers can persuade LSAC to change its ways.

Spring Enrollments for Blueprint’s Live LSAT Course Now Open

Merry Spring-Enrollments-Are-Now-Open Day!

Although this time of year is always special, it’s an extra meaningful occasion this time around because starting in 2012, Blueprint LSAT Preparation is opening the doors to its live course in six new cities. As previously reported, we’re expanding to Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Miami and Seattle. Look at us go.

For several weeks, we’ve been hearing from students in those cities and elsewhere who have been itching to sign up. Starting today, you can scratch that itch. If you decide to sign up for a spring class today, though, be sure and do so by calling us before 6:30 p.m. PST. That’s when the new price for our course ($1,299) kicks in. The number is 888-4-BP-PREP if you have a phone in your hand right now (you know you do).
