New LSAT Regulations Take Effect

No electronic timing
    devices are permitted.

NO weapons or firearms, LOL

Beginning with the June 11, 2007 LSAT
administration, there will be a number of significant changes to test center
regulations. Additional details about the new regulations, and lists of
permitted and forbidden items, can be found in the 2007–2008 LSAT & LSDAS
Information Book. This information will also be provided on LSAT admission
tickets. Ignorance of these new regulations will not be considered an excuse for
their violation. Bringing prohibited items into the test room may result in
the confiscation of such items by the test supervisor, a warning, dismissal from
the test center, and/or cancellation of a test score by LSAC.
            

            

Some of the most significant changes are listed below:

    

• Items permitted in the test room.
      Tests takers may bring into the room only a clear plastic ziplock
      bag, maximum size one gallon (3.79 liter), which must be stored under the
      chair and may be accessed only during the break. The ziplock bag may
      contain only the following items: LSAT Admission Ticket stub; valid ID;
      wallet; keys; hygiene products; #2 or HB pencils, highlighter, erasers,
      pencil sharpener (no mechanical pencils); tissues; beverage in
      plastic container or juice box (20 oz./591 ml maximum size) and snack for
      break only.
  
   
• Items permitted on the desktop.
      Test takers may only have tissues, ID, pencils, erasers, pencil sharpener,
      highlighter, and analog (nondigital) wristwatch. No electronic timing
      devices are permitted. This is a change from previous testing years.
  
   
• Prohibited items. Candidates are
      not permitted to bring into the test center the following items:
      weapons or firearms, ear plugs, books, backpacks, handbags, papers of
      any kind, calculators, rulers, timers, listening devices, cellular
      phones, recording or photographic devices, pagers, beepers, headsets, and/or
      other electronic devices. Bringing prohibited items into the test room
      may result in the confiscation of such items by the test supervisor, a
      warning, dismissal from the test center, and/or cancellation of a test score
      by LSAC. Prohibited items may not be used during the break. LSAC and
      LSAT testing staff are not responsible for test takers’ belongings.
  
   
• Hats/hoods. No hats or hoods are
      allowed (except items of religious apparel).
  
   
• Handbags, backpacks, briefcases. No handbags, backpacks, briefcases or
      other bags—except the ziplock bag described above—are allowed in the test
      room.
  
   
• Cancellation/Complaint deadlines.
      Test taker complaints and cancellation requests must be received at LSAC
      within six (6) days of the test date. (This is a change from previous
      years.)

我也拿到了准考证，QQ：17832021有机会交流。

请问,你的SSN/SIN一项写的是什么？

xiaolongnu

your social security number = SSN

if you are not a resident of the US, you should not have a SSN.

bkiller

也就是说准考证上，那一项空着什么都不用填了？

xiaolongnu

you dont need to

when you reg. online with LSAC, they should already have all the information they need for you to take the LSAT.

meaning SSN etc.

if they've given you a number for your test ID, then use that number, other wise, leave it blank

or you can check with LSAC to make sure.

Is there any clock in the test room? If not, how can people know the time and ajust their pace on the exam? Anybody has ideas?

xiaolongnu

you should have a person there to time you

when time is up, he/she will tell u time is up

The New LSAT Regulations are very similar to the U.S. Bar exam regulations.
