Dear Jamaica, Thank you for your query regarding the preparation of your child for the LSAT, a crucial step toward their admission to a law school. Here are two key findings of my further research on this topic: 1. LSAT and GRE Consideration by Canadian Law Schools • Most law schools require the LSAT. However, some schools also consider GRE scores if the applicant has taken the exam. • Schools that consider GRE scores: • St. John's University: Accepts both GRE and LSAT. Applicants should request Education Testing Service (ETS) to send their GRE scores using code 2624. • University of Toronto: Primarily requires the LSAT but also considers GRE scores. • McGill University: Accepts the GRE. • Additional Considerations: • Quebec law schools do not require the LSAT but may consider GRE scores. • Some schools have language requirements (e.g., Quebec law schools require proficiency in French). • Each school has specific essay guidelines. • Applicants must register for the Credential Assembly Service (CAS) to apply, regardless of whether they submit GRE or LSAT scores. • If submitting GRE scores instead of LSAT, applicants must request ETS to send their scores to the schools they are applying to. • LSAT Demon notes that Canadian application requirements are similar to those in the United States. Many schools accept GRE scores without preference over the LSAT. 2. U.S. Law Schools That Accept GRE Scores (for reference) I found that many U.S. institutions accept GRE scores as an alternative to the LSAT, including: • Harvard Law School • Yale Law School • Columbia Law School • Stanford Law School • University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School • University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Law • University of Chicago Law School • Georgetown University Law Center • New York University (NYU) School of Law • Northwestern Pritzker School of Law For further details, sources such as GeeksforGeeks, Texas A&M School of Law, and Jamboree provide comprehensive lists of law schools accepting GRE scores. A-QuEST’s Preferred Approach At A-QuEST, we encourage law school applicants to consider the GRE over the LSAT whenever possible. The GRE not only meets admission requirements for select law schools but also opens broader post-graduate and professional opportunities across multiple disciplines, schools, and jurisdictions. This flexibility can be particularly valuable for students who may later wish to pursue interdisciplinary studies or explore alternative career paths within or beyond the legal field. And it saves you money! If this logic aligns with your child’s long-term goals, I would be more than happy to guide him/her through the GRE preparation process. Please let me know how you’d like to proceed. Best regards, Dennis A. Minott, PhD, A-QuEST Email: a_quest57@yahoo.com A-QuEST: http://www.cooolth.com

Introduction The transition from high school to college is a pivotal moment in a student's academic journey, shaping their future opportunities and career prospects. While the college application process encompasses various components such as standardized test scores, recommendation letters, and personal essays, one of the most critical elements is the high school transcript. Colleges and universities in the United States carefully scrutinize these transcripts to assess a student's academic readiness and potential for success in higher education...
