1. Prohibited Behavior Suspected or Observed During the Test Process for Candidates Taking the Test in Testing Centers: �ʘ��ǃ��� staff and/or testing center staff will monitor you during your Test. If you are observed or suspected of engaging in any Prohibited Behavior, �ʘ��ǃ��� staff and/or testing center staff may discontinue your Test administration and/or log their observations on an irregularity report for submission to �ʘ��ǃ���. �ʘ��ǃ��� staff and/or testing center staff are not required to give you any notice or warning before taking any such action.

Back to Terms and Conditions

Test Security Investigations; Score Validity. 

In addition to responding to instances of observed or suspected prohibited behavior witnessed or reported by testing center staff and/or testing proctors, and as part of its efforts to protect the fairness of the Test and the integrity of Test scores, �ʘ��ǃ��� may conduct investigations relating to the validity of Test scores and/or the security of its Test materials and the Test process (collectively, “Test Security Investigation”). You agree to cooperate with any Test Security Investigation. �ʘ��ǃ��� may withhold and not report any Test score pending the outcome of any Test Security Investigation.

In certain instances, a Test Security Investigation may produce evidence that calls into question the validity of a group of scores (e.g., all scores achieved by a group of Candidates from a testing center on a specific Test date) and may result in �ʘ��ǃ��� taking action with respect to such group of Candidates, as referenced in Section 31 of this Agreement.

In other instances, a Test Security Investigation may produce evidence that calls into question the validity of specific Test scores and may cause �ʘ��ǃ��� to initiate a review of the validity of your Test score. �ʘ��ǃ��� reserves the right to cancel your Test scores if it reasonably believes based on substantial evidence that the scores are invalid.

You understand and agree that �ʘ��ǃ��� may investigate, place a hold on, and/or cancel your Test score at any time after you take the Test, including after your Test score has been initially deemed valid and reported to third parties, including law schools. You also understand and agree that �ʘ��ǃ��� may seek information from third parties related to a Test Security Investigation and that �ʘ��ǃ��� may release confidential information regarding any pending or completed Test Security Investigation to third-party recipients of your Test score, including law schools. If your Test score is canceled at any time as the result of a Test Security Investigation, you understand and agree that �ʘ��ǃ��� may notify third-party score recipients of the score cancellation and the reason for the score cancellation.

Test Security Investigations may also lead to a referral to �ʘ��ǃ���’s Subcommittee on Misconduct and Irregularities in the Admission Process and/or to restrictions or limitations in your ability to take the Test in the future, including but not limited to limitations on the modality in which you test. In the interest of protecting test security, �ʘ��ǃ��� may also restrict or limit your ability to take the Test while a Test Security Investigation is ongoing.

Back to Terms and Conditions

Other Actions That May Be Taken in Response to Prohibited Behavior and/or Test Security Investigations. 

In response to observed or suspected Prohibited Behavior and/or a Test Security Investigation, �ʘ��ǃ��� may, in its sole discretion, decide that additional steps are appropriate. 

1. Disclosure of Investigative Information: �ʘ��ǃ��� reserves the right to disclose details of any Prohibited Behavior (observed or suspected) or any Test Security Investigation to anyone who may be able to assist �ʘ��ǃ��� in its investigation or response or who may have an interest in their own independent investigation or response. This includes, but is not limited to, law enforcement, law schools, score recipients, and any third party assisting �ʘ��ǃ��� in the investigation. These disclosure rights aid in protecting the integrity and fairness of the Test process and benefit Candidates and Test score recipients who properly obtain their Test scores. You consent to these disclosures and you release �ʘ��ǃ��� from any and all liability for making such disclosures. �ʘ��ǃ��� may disclose the evidence on which any finding is based (including but not limited to any audio and/or video recordings of the Test) to any law school that receives your Test scores.
2. Disclosure of Prohibited Behavior: If you are found by �ʘ��ǃ��� to have engaged in any act that is prohibited under this Agreement, �ʘ��ǃ��� may disclose such conduct to any law school that receives your Test score(s) and to any third party with a legitimate reason for knowing that information.

Back to Terms and Conditions

Prohibitions on Testing or Limitations on Testing Modality. 

�ʘ��ǃ��� may prohibit you from taking the Test and/or limit your testing modality (even if you have registered to take the Test and/or chosen a different testing modality), if �ʘ��ǃ���, in its sole discretion, has reason to believe that you:

• Have violated or intend to violate the Intended Use Policy;
• Have engaged in any Prohibited Behavior or otherwise violated the terms and conditions of this Agreement in connection with a prior or future administration of the Test;
• Intend to engage in any Prohibited Behavior or otherwise violate the terms and conditions of this Agreement in the future;
• Have provided false or misleading information to �ʘ��ǃ��� or any third party related to the taking of the Test;
• Are an �ʘ��ǃ��� employee or relative of an �ʘ��ǃ��� employee, or are working for or on behalf of �ʘ��ǃ��� as a third-party vendor, and have not received explicit approval from �ʘ��ǃ��� to take the Test;
• Are working on behalf of any Test-preparation provider(s) or are otherwise providing Test-preparation services on behalf of third parties; 
• Are using any �ʘ��ǃ��� employee, individual engaged by �ʘ��ǃ���, or any Test-preparation service provider or employee as a reader or scribe as part of an approved Test accommodation; or
• Are engaging or have otherwise engaged in any behavior that may threaten or has threatened the integrity of the Test.

If �ʘ��ǃ��� determines that you are not taking the Test for the Intended Use, �ʘ��ǃ��� will send you a written communication indicating that you are suspected of violating �ʘ��ǃ���’s Intended Use Policy along with the consequences for any violation of the Intended Use Policy. You shall have five (5) business days from the date that �ʘ��ǃ��� sends written notice of the violation of the Intended Use Policy to you to provide a detailed explanation for your conduct. Such explanation must include an explanation as to why your conduct is not a violation of �ʘ��ǃ���’s Intended Use Policy. Following �ʘ��ǃ���’s receipt of your explanation, �ʘ��ǃ��� will submit your explanation to �ʘ��ǃ���’s Office of Test Security for review. Within five (5) business days of �ʘ��ǃ���’s receipt of your explanation, �ʘ��ǃ���’s Office of Test Security will issue its finding as to whether your conduct resulted in a violation of �ʘ��ǃ���’s Intended Use Policy. Any and all determinations issued by �ʘ��ǃ���’s Office of Test Security shall be final and shall not be subject to any further appeal by you. If you do not submit a detailed explanation of your conduct that includes an explanation as to why your conduct should not be deemed a violation of �ʘ��ǃ���’s Intended Use Policy within five (5) business days of the date that �ʘ��ǃ��� sends notice of the suspected violation of the Intended Use Policy to you, then your violation of �ʘ��ǃ���’s Intended Use Policy shall be deemed established, and will be final and unappealable.

�ʘ��ǃ��� may also take action in response to any known or suspected violation of the Intended Use Policy during or after the time you test. 

Back to Terms and Conditions

Compromises in the Registration, Testing, Test Scoring, or Test Score Reporting Processes; Group Irregularities. 

�ʘ��ǃ��� takes significant steps that are intended to provide you a fair, standardized Test process. However, in some cases, circumstances may prevent this process from occurring as designed. Such circumstances may include, but shall not be limited to, the following:

• Deviations from standard testing procedures such as events that cause the Test to be canceled or interrupted, or that cause a mistiming on any part of the Test;
• Errors, delays, or other nonstandard circumstances in (a) processing Test registrations; (b) administering the Test; (c) preparing, handling, shipping, processing, or scoring the Test; or (d) reporting Test scores;
• Circumstances that raise concerns about the possibility that one or more Prohibited Behaviors occurred during the Test and may have affected a group of Candidates or that raise concerns about the validity of a group of Candidates’ Test scores. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to, evidence of advance access to Test content or inappropriate conduct during any Test administration; or
• Any other events that disrupt or compromise any part of the Test process (e.g., registration, Test distribution, testing, Test scoring, and Test score reporting).

In the event any such circumstance occurs, �ʘ��ǃ��� will review the situation and determine whether it needs to take any action, including but not limited to not scoring the Test or canceling Test scores for that administration of the Test. �ʘ��ǃ��� may review any Test administration or Test scores for such circumstances as long as the Test scores are reportable to law schools and for at least a period of five (5) years following the date of the Test administration. If �ʘ��ǃ��� determines that it needs to take action, �ʘ��ǃ��� may, in its sole discretion: (a) correct the error (if an error occurred and �ʘ��ǃ��� believes correction is feasible); (b) not score the Test or cancel the Test or Test score and offer each affected Candidate the option to retake the Test at no additional fee; or (c) not score the Test or cancel the Test or Test score and offer a refund to each affected Candidate.

The remedies listed in this Section 31 are the exclusive remedies available to Candidates for the circumstances described in this Section 31.

Decisions made by �ʘ��ǃ��� pursuant to this Section 31 are final and are not subject to any appeal. If �ʘ��ǃ��� offers the option to retake the Test and you select that option, you must take the retest in its entirety, and not in part, to produce a reportable Test score.

Back to Terms and Conditions

Test Complaints and Feedback. 

If you experience any issues during testing and would like �ʘ��ǃ��� to review the issues and potentially take action in response, you must submit either an official Test complaint or Test feedback to �ʘ��ǃ��� pursuant to the instructions provided at LSAT Test Day Complaints and Feedback. �ʘ��ǃ��� reserves the right to address any reported issues pursuant to Sections 26 and 27, above, or through the procedures addressed below.

1. Official Complaint: �ʘ��ǃ��� will review the issues identified in any timely filed official complaint submitted in accordance with the procedures described in this section. In order for your complaint to be reviewed by �ʘ��ǃ���, your complaint must be entered into your online �ʘ��ǃ��� JD Account within two (2) calendar days of the date of your applicable Test administration starting from the calendar day after your Test administration. Please note that �ʘ��ǃ��� may require additional information from you in order to provide a response to your complaint. During any review of an official complaint, �ʘ��ǃ��� may place a hold on your file pending the results of its review. This hold on your account may result in a delay in the reporting of your Test score and a delay in the issuance of your CAS Reports. 

2. Result of Investigation of Official Complaint: At the time you submit an official Test complaint, you will be asked whether, as a result of the issues reported in your complaint, you would prefer to: (1) keep your Test score; (2) cancel your Test score and, if eligible, register for the next available LSAT administration; or (3) if available, retest on a makeup date during the current LSAT administration.

   If �ʘ��ǃ���’s review confirms that your complaint is valid and does not raise issues of Prohibited Behavior, your remedy will be provided in accordance with the remedies provided in this Agreement, or, in �ʘ��ǃ���’s sole discretion, will be processed based on the preference that you provided to �ʘ��ǃ��� at the time you submitted your complaint and in light of the available options.

   • If you elected to keep your Test score, your Test score will be released and �ʘ��ǃ��� will use the information you provided as feedback to improve �ʘ��ǃ���’s services.
   • If you elected to cancel your Test score and register for a later test administration, �ʘ��ǃ��� will cancel your Test score and register you for one (1) Test administration per the preferences you provide when submitting your complaint; provided, that, you will be selected for a Test administration within the available Test administrations in the annual Test cycle if you are otherwise eligible to take the Test in compliance with Limits on Repeating the Test.
   • If you elected the option to retake the Test within the same Test administration and this option remains available at the time of �ʘ��ǃ���’s decision, you will be provided with scheduling instructions so that you can retest during the same Test administration. The Test that was the subject of your official complaint will not be scored, and the score you receive on the makeup test will be reported as your official score from that Test administration.

   If �ʘ��ǃ���’s investigation does not confirm that your complaint is valid, you will be provided the following options:

   • Keep your Test score, in which event any hold on your score will be removed and your score will be released; or
   • Cancel your Test score, which will be reported as a “Candidate Cancel.” You will not be entitled to any waiver of registration fees on a later test. To elect this option, you must elect to cancel your score within the timeframe provided in the results of �ʘ��ǃ���’s investigation. If you do not timely elect this option, your Test score will be released and you will have no opportunity to cancel the score in the future.

   Subject to Section 34 below, the remedies described above are the final and exclusive remedies available to Candidates who submit official Test complaints and whose complaints are not addressed pursuant to Sections 26 through 31, above. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 32, however, �ʘ��ǃ��� reserves the right not to report Test scores and/or to take other actions in accordance with this Agreement if you violated any terms in this Agreement with respect to the Test at issue in your complaint and/or are subject to a Test Security Investigation with respect to the Test at issue in your complaint.
   
   If �ʘ��ǃ��� does not respond to your complaint within fourteen (14) business days after the date that you submit your complaint to �ʘ��ǃ���, you should contact �ʘ��ǃ��� regarding the status of your complaint.

3. Procedure for Submitting Feedback: If you want to submit feedback rather than an official Test complaint, you must indicate that you would like �ʘ��ǃ��� to address your issue as “feedback” rather than a “complaint” in your online submission. Your indication that the communication is to be regarded as “feedback” rather than a “complaint” is necessary to prevent the placement of a hold on your �ʘ��ǃ��� file. If you submit feedback, �ʘ��ǃ��� will use the information you provide to help improve the Test experience going forward.

Disability-Related Testing Accommodations. 

Some of the terms and conditions set forth or referenced in this Agreement may be modified for you if you are approved to receive disability-related testing accommodations for the Test as described in the �ʘ��ǃ��� Policy on Accommodations for Test Takers with Disabilities. Any such modifications are limited to the Test accommodations for which you are specifically approved and that are listed in your Accommodation Letter and provided to you via your online �ʘ��ǃ��� JD Account. Other than as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Section 33 shall impact, sever, waive, or otherwise limit any terms or conditions in this Agreement.

If the scribe or reader has previously taken or intends to take the Test during this restricted period, you must notify �ʘ��ǃ��� prior to taking the Test to seek a waiver of this prohibition. �ʘ��ǃ��� will determine whether to issue a waiver to this prohibition in its sole discretion.

If you have any questions about using assistive technology for the Test or need assistance with any product or service during the Test, please contact �ʘ��ǃ���’s Customer Relationships team via telephone at 1.800.336.3982 or via email at �ʘ��ǃ���info@lsac.org no later than the registration deadline for the Test.

Secure Tests and Test questions (e.g., Tests and Test questions that are not made available by �ʘ��ǃ��� to the general public) may not be copied, shared, discussed, or disclosed at any time or in any manner whatsoever.

Test-related materials that �ʘ��ǃ��� has made available to the general public, such as materials designated by �ʘ��ǃ��� as practice or sample Tests, may not be copied, duplicated, or used in any other works, in whole or in part, without the prior written approval of �ʘ��ǃ���.

If you are approved to take the Test in a paper format as a Test accommodation, you must return any Test materials that are provided to you by �ʘ��ǃ��� within forty-eight (48) hours of the date of your Test administration. If you fail to return any such Test materials within this 48-hour time period, �ʘ��ǃ��� reserves the right to: (a) not to report your Test score for that Test administration; (b) cancel any future Test registrations; (c) refer the matter for a Test Security Investigation and/or to �ʘ��ǃ���’s Subcommittee on Misconduct and Irregularities in the Admission Process; and/or (d) engage the appropriate law enforcement agencies to secure the return of �ʘ��ǃ���’s intellectual property and physical property. Under no circumstances will you be entitled to any refund of the Test registration fees paid to �ʘ��ǃ��� if you fail to comply with the terms and conditions of this Section 35.

1. Liquidated Damages for Violation of �ʘ��ǃ���’s Intellectual Property Rights: ANY COPYING, SHARING, MISAPPROPRIATION, DISCUSSING, OR DISCLOSING OF �ʘ��ǃ���’S TEST, TEST QUESTIONS, OR TEST-RELATED DOCUMENTS AND MATERIALS IS A DIRECT VIOLATION OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU HEREBY AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUCH VIOLATION ON YOUR PART, YOU WILL BE LIABLE TO �ʘ��ǃ��� FOR LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN THE AMOUNT OF FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000). YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PAYABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT DO NOT CONSTITUTE A PENALTY AND YOU AGREE THAT THE AMOUNT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS REASONABLE IN LIGHT OF THE ANTICIPATED HARM CAUSED BY THE BREACH RELATED THERETO AND THE DIFFICULTIES OF PROOF OF LOSS AND INCONVENIENCE OR NON-FEASIBILITY OF OBTAINING ANY ADEQUATE REMEDY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IN ADDITION TO ANY LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AWARDED TO �ʘ��ǃ��� UNDER THIS PROVISION, �ʘ��ǃ��� MAY PURSUE INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN A COURT OF LAW FOR ANY SUCH VIOLATION OF ITS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND REFER SUCH VIOLATION TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 35(B) OF THIS AGREEMENT.

3. �ʘ��ǃ��� Ownership of Test Materials: �ʘ��ǃ��� retains complete ownership rights to the Test and all Test materials, including Test answers. �ʘ��ǃ��� owns all answers and answer documents you submit, including all written responses, as well as all Test score-related data maintained by �ʘ��ǃ���.
