Digital LSAT? LSAC Studies LSAT Administration Via Tablet

In the most recent LSAC newsletter, LSAC mentions it's looking into administering the LSAT via tablet (PDF, page 5). For those of you who don't know, the LSAT is the last major graduate-level exam to still be given only via paper and pencil.

But, at some vague point in the future, you (or your younger siblings, or your children) may be taking the LSAT on an iPad or some other type of computer-related device.

Here are the full details from LSAC:

Digital LSAT
LSAC is conducting research involving LSAT delivery options for the future. We are studying the feasibility of a tablet- based LSAT administration system, which will likely be field-tested sometime in 2015. No decision has been made regarding future implementation of such a system. In the 1990s, LSAC began researching the potential for electronic delivery of the test, and this is a continuation of those efforts.
