What is the deal with the LSAC "Evaluation Service" ? Forum

[2807]

Howdy,

Can someone tell me if I should consider this? Does anyone have experience with this?

This is what the email says (from LSAC to me): (copy/paste)

LSAC’s Evaluation Service is a new way for law schools to learn about the skills and attributes their applicants possess. Evaluators are invited by applicants via e-mail to electronically provide ratings and comments on six noncognitive skill and attribute categories; law schools specify how many evaluations and/or letters of recommendation they wish to require or accept. The service is included as part of LSAC’s Credential Assembly Service at no extra charge to applicants. This service is being offered now for admission in 2011. To learn more about the Evaluation Service, use the links in this e-mail, or go to What’s New in your LSAC.org account.


Never heard/read of this on TLS. Sorry if this is old news to you veterans.
