==The Test==
  −
Composed of four sections - 1 of reading comprehension, 1 "logic games" section, and 2 logical reasoning sections - the LSAT seeks to test a candidate's capabilities of logical reasoning.

  −
Since the test is composed of a known quantity of sections, and a known set of questions, it is a test which may - and must - be "studied for."  Law school candidates are advised to take a preparatory course in addition to studying rigorously on their own, as not all of the reasoning skills tested will be natural to the candidate.

==Benchmarks==
  −
Typically, a 170 is enough to, coupled with a positive undergraduate grade point average, guarantee admission to the top-10 American law schools.  A 172 is generally enough to guarantee admission to at least one of the top-5 American law schools.<ref>In order, Yale, Stanford, Harvard, NYU, Columbia.</ref>  Each individual point, then, is very valuable. .
