For some I have been arguing that the days of the “LSAT Monopoly” are coming to an end. Over the last decade there has been discussion about whether the LSAT should be required at all AND/OR whether the GRE should be used as a substitute for the LSAT. I have discussed this in numerous posts which include:
– “American Bar Association Considers Whether The LSAT Should Be Required”
– “The GRE As A Possible Substitute For The LSAT”
– “The GRE Joins The LSAT As An Objective and Reliable Admissions Test”
– “The Revolution Is Beginning: Forget the #LSAT. This Law School Will Accept Your #GRE Scores.”
In any case, it appears that the Law School Admission Council has accepted that it will have to compete with the GRE.
The evidence includes:
Evidence that competition is good. If #LSAT wants to compete with #GRE then one must be able to take the LSAT – Good for @LSATPreparation https://t.co/mAo3x5SJRk

The move from four to six administrations is surely an attempt to compete directly with the the #GRE. https://t.co/lsacxXfehy

For those who don’t believe in free markets and competition, this is your answer.
