You can receive a LSAT test score ranging from 120-180. The average score is 150. However, the LSAT test score you should obtain depends on which school you are going to apply to. Usually, the higher the school ranks, the higher the LSAT test score you must obtain.
Normally, you may not take the LSAT test more than three times in any two year period even if you cancel your LSAT test score. However, you may retake the LSAT test if the law school you are applying to requires a more recent score than any you have on record or approves you to retake the test.
