L-SAT (not L-S-A-T) is clearly the way to go.

The Dean of Admissions at Michigan State called it the L.S.A.T. when I met him, through me offguard. My other buddy always calls its the L.S.A.T. because he's 20 years old and writing the SAT to get a scholly for hockey.

Everyone else I know calls it the L-SAT.

el-sat seems to be the way for those that are intimately familiar with it, unless you are part of a professional group like lsac or a ls then it seems like the more professional and unassuming way of pronouncing it is l.s.a.t.

p.s. does the same go for lsac ? i pronounce it el-sac

L.S.A.T. = Formal
L-SAT = Informal

That's my problem with saying L-SAC. I say L-SAT but L.S.A.C.

I personally call it the Law School Admission Test and much prefer to say Analytical Reasoning section over "games"
