What is retake limit?

LSAC limits how often you can take the LSAT: three times in a single testing year, five times in the current and five past testing years, seven times over a lifetime.

Canceled scores count toward the limits. Absences and withdrawals do not.

You cannot retake if you already scored 180 in the current reportable period.
