LSAT-INDIA 2020 exams to be conducted online
The Law School Admission Council (LSAC) has announced it would conduct the LSAT-INDIA 2020 exams online, for the first time ever. The decision by the LSAC has been taken in view of the coronavirus pandemic, in order to avoid students from gathering up at exam centres. The move from a paper and pencil test to an online exam will enable candidates to take the test from the convenience of their home or other respective settings without worrying about their health and safety, the law school has said in a release.
LSAT—India, which was a paper-pencil test since its inception in 2009, becomes India’s first and only Law Entrance Exam to be entirely online, AI-enabled remote-proctored.
It is the first time in more than 25 years of existence of Pearson's Virtual University Enterprises (VUE) that an Artificial Intelligence-enabled remote-proctored online solution has been made available in this format. Complete details on the exam are available on the official website lsac.org.
