Formula & Mathematical Methodology: LSAT 120–180 Score Formula

Accuracy = RawCorrect / TotalScoredItems
ScaledLSAT ≈ round(120 + 60 × Accuracy0.88)
Accuracy = RawCorrect / TotalScoredItems; ScaledLSAT ≈ round(120 + 60 × Accuracy^0.88)
  • rawCorrectAnswers: Raw Correct Answers (correct)
  • totalScoredQuestions: Total Scored Questions (questions)

Rounding: Standardized test and time rules follow official scoring rubrics; continuous outputs round to 2 decimal places.

Worked Example: Benchmark Scenario: LSAT 120–180 Score

Estimate 120–180 LSAT scaled score and percentile from raw correct answers.

  1. Enter your raw test counts, credit hours, or schedule parameters.
  2. Evaluate the formula: Accuracy = RawCorrect / TotalScoredItems; ScaledLSAT ≈ round(120 + 60 × Accuracy^0.88).
  3. Inspect the primary score/duration, supporting metrics, and 3 SVG graphs.
Result: Computes LSAT 120–180 Score via Accuracy = RawCorrect / TotalScoredItems; ScaledLSAT ≈ round(120 + 60 × Accuracy^0.88).

LSAT Raw Score to 120–180 Scaled Score & Law School Percentile Calculator: inputs, method, and how to read the result

Estimate 120–180 LSAT scaled score and percentile from raw correct answers.

Choose inputs for the case you are checking

The defaults are illustrative. Replace them with values for your case and keep the units shown beside each field.

  • Raw Correct Answers: Total correct answers across the 3 scored LSAT sections.
  • Total Scored Questions: Total scored questions on the test form (typically 75 to 78).

What the calculation includes

With the default values shown, Estimated Scaled LSAT Score is 171 pts (120–180). The calculation follows LSAT 120–180 Score Formula; the formula and variable definitions above show how the inputs combine.

One-input check: With the other defaults held constant, changing Raw Correct Answers from 64 correct to 70 correct changes Estimated Scaled LSAT Score from 171 pts (120–180) to 175 pts (120–180). This is a comparison inside the calculator's stated model, not a prediction.

Where to use caution

  • Uses official published scoring scales, Carnegie unit conventions, and ISO calendar rules.
  • Official standardized test equating curves vary slightly by test form administration date.

Scope: Global Academic, Psychometric & ISO 8601 Time Standard Check the assumptions and limitations against your situation before relying on the estimate.
