The Law School Admission Council will stop “flagging” the Law School Admission Test scores earned by candidates who receive disability accommodations under a settlement reached Tuesday with the U.S. Department of Justice and the state of California.
The council has long alerted law schools when test takers with disabilities or impairments received extra time to complete the LSAT, a policy known as flagging. The council does not flag scores earned with other types of accommodations, such as extra break times between test sections or specialized software that enables disabled takers to use computers.
