The LSAT is traditionally the main admissions test for law schools, with 98% of applicants using this exam for acceptance. However, a notable small percentage (2%) successfully gain admission with the GRE, which is slowly increasing in acceptance, particularly at prestigious T-14 institutions. For instance, Yale Law School accepted about 12% of its 2023-2024 class through the GRE. The GRE's advantages include flexibility in testing options and applicability for various graduate programs beyond law, making it an attractive alternative for some students.
The LSAT remains dominant as 98% of law students were admitted based on it, but a growing number are also finding success with the GRE.
The flexibility of a stellar GRE score extends beyond law school, opening doors to other disciplines like business and engineering.
Among T-14 law schools, significant GRE admissions occurred, with Yale and Stanford leading; this illustrates a shift in admissions preferences.
With the GRE available year-round, it offers candidates more flexibility compared to the LSAT, making it an appealing choice for some applicants.
