According to the Law
School Admissions Council, the June 2007 LSAT will undergo the following
changes:
Beginning with the June 2007 administration, LSAC will introduce a variant
of reading comprehension, called comparative reading, as one of the
four sets in the LSAT reading comprehension section. In general, comparative
reading questions are similar to traditional reading comprehension questions.
However, there is one significant difference: instead of being based
on one longer passage, comparative reading questions are based on two
shorter passages. The two passages together are of roughly the same
length as one reading comprehension passage, so the total amount of
reading in the reading comprehension section will remain essentially
the same. A few of the questions that follow a comparative reading passage
pair might concern only one of the two passages, but most questions
will be about both passages and how they relate to each other. More
information, including test preparation material for comparative reading,
will be available on the LSAC website (www.LSAC.org)
in mid-February 2007. This information will also appear in the printed
2007-2008 LSAT & LSDAS Information Book, to be distributed in February
2007.
This change is a result of extensive research by LSAC staff and
consultations with the LSAC Test Development and Research Committee.
