How we work this out
What it does
Enter a score to see the percentage of test takers who scored lower, from LSAC's table for the 2023 to 2026 testing years.
Every LSAT® score from 120 to 180, with LSAC's percentile from the scores of the 2023-2024, 2024-2025 and 2025-2026 testing years.
Method
- Your score is looked up in LSAC's table. Nothing is estimated: every score has its own published figure.
- LSAC's percentile is the percentage of test scores lower than yours. It prints it to hundredths, to tenths and as a whole number; the big number here is LSAC's whole number.
- LSAC's whole numbers stop at 99, so a 180 is the 99th percentile.
