GMAC now allows applicants to preview scores before deciding whether or not to cancel their scores.

Law schools are losing applicants. Do you think it would increase and/or improve the law school applicant pool if applicants were allowed to preview their scores BEFORE deciding to cancel?

Are even more students going to bypass law school and go to b-school - as is already happening - because of this?

Will/Should LSAC follow suit?

Would you feel more comfortable with the law school application process as a whole if LSAC made a similar change?

Do you think the law schools would react as favorably as they did when the ABA began requiring only the highest scores of applicants?

Would the LSAC potentially make more money, or lose money? Why?

*Keep in mind that the GMAT is a computer-adaptive test that can be taken throughout the year, whereas the LSAT has for scheduled administrations per year.

Before LSAC can follow suit, they need to adopt electronic testing.
Due to the way the GMAT is scored, it's also more likely that someone's final score could be way off their ability, which is a lot less likely with LSAC
