The room supervisor will keep the official time and will announce a five-minutes-remaining warning for each section.

Test supervisors will try to accommodate left-handed candidates. However, LSAC cannot guarantee special desks or tables for you.

If any problems arise that necessitate retesting, LSAC will notify affected candidates as soon as possible regarding arrangements for taking the LSAT during the next regularly scheduled administration at no additional charge.
