Every LSAT score/Number of Applicants/% Change

Every LSAT score/Number of Applicants/% ChangeSpivey Consulting Group

As of 12/18/2015

Applicants’ LSAT scores have now been expanded to include all scores (to my knowledge for the first time). Per LSAC "Please use the percent-change data with caution, as smaller cell counts may affect the reliability of the percentages." The table below shows the ungrouped high LSAT score of 2016 ABA applicants with the percent change from last year:
