Are you taking the LSAT in China? Students take the LSAT if they plan to attend law schools in the US and Canada. However, the test administers across the globe. Check out this post about taking the LSAT abroad.
In China, four separate locations offer the LSAT:
- Beijing, Beijing Foreign Studies University
- Guangzhou, Guangdong University of Foreign Studies
- Kowloon, Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority San Po Kong Office
- Shanghai, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics
Kowloon administers the test four times a year: February, June, September/October, and December. The rest of the testing centers offer it twice a year: June and December. You can find a complete list of test dates and deadlines here. Students should know that testing center locations are subject to change. Refer to LSAC for the most up-to-date information or if you have any questions.
International students should register for the LSAT as soon as possible, as testing center space is limited. You can register online through your LSAC.org account or by calling LSAC at 215.968.1001.
Unlike the US, all international LSAT administrations are nondisclosed. This means that students will only receive access to their LSAT score, score band, percentile rank, and writing. They don’t include the text or answers in the score reports. In China, the use of the LSAT is a relatively new phenomenon, and therefore there are not many on-the-ground LSAT preparation options there. However, there are still many high-quality LSAT preparation options available to LSAT takers there, including PowerScore’s Live Online LSAT courses, On Demand LSAT courses, self-study using LSAT preparation books like the LSAT Bibles, and online LSAT tutoring.
