Beginning in August, the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) will no longer be offered online in an effort to boost test security. Reuters reports that the move away from remote testing, which the council first introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, comes amid escalating concerns over cheating. "We currently use a wide range of security measures before, during, and after testing to deter and detect potential misconduct," according to the announcement from the Law School Admission Council. The council went on to say that, "Moving to in-person testing will provide another important deterrent to anyone who tries to undermine the integrity of the test." Online testing will be offered to examinees with "limited" medical conditions and certain geographical hardships.
