Plan your prep
Should you take the January 2027 LSAT?
The best test date is the one you're actually ready for, taken early enough to apply near the start of your cycle. If you can hit your target score by January 13, 2027 without cramming, January 2027is a great window. If not, a later date you walk into prepared will almost always beat an earlier one you're rushing.
