Law School

A law school (also known as a school of law or college of law) is an institution specializing in legal education. In the United States and Canada, prospective law school candidates are required to take the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), an examination administered by the Law School Admission Council (LSAC). It is designed to assess logical and verbal reasoning skills. Administered four times a year, it is a required exam for all ABA-approved law schools.
