will they postpone releasing the score b/c asia hasn't taken the exam? also, is the score based on the SAME exam (content wise), or the same DATE (say June)?

It might seem strange that the June exam is so much later in Asia (as well as in Australia and New Zealand), but it's like that every year.

It'll be a different test than the one that people in North America took today. Even travel by ship would allow enough time for North American test-takers to report secret test info to friends in Asia/Australia/NZ.

Your score release date will not be impacted by the fact that some overseas test-takers won't take it until 6/27.

so does it mean it's easier to take the LSAT in somewhere people's first language is not English? Say if i take it in Asia, and most people there taking it don't speak English, so the average will be worse and I'll be better off?

LSAT Blog: I thought it was a little easier to read laid out like this! Thanks for all the dates!

not necessarily. I've found out Asian kids who'd never been to any English speaking country getting 170+'s on the LSAT, making me feel a bit dead inside.

I hear u. but one thing to remember: their spoken English is really bad and I don't think they can pass the real interviews of top law schools here.

You wouldn't gain any special advantage by taking it in a country with fewer native English speakers.

Your comment is based on the assumption that the LSAT is curved. It's not curved. It's equated.
