[blindlaw] LSAC questions

[M T]

even though it has been about 4 years I remember the trouble I had
with LSAC. You are absolutely right in your assertion about the
documentation they require. I had a hell of a time with my
accommodations and ended up talking to an operator on the regular
line, not the accommodated testing line. She told me that they get a
lot of complaints about the accommodated testing and they are
frequently rude. I would suggest that perhaps you should try the
regular phone number that everyone else would call and see, after you
explain to them the situation, if they will perhaps be of better
assistance. It worked for me, it may or may not work for you. Good
luck.
