We hope the option of this alternative test will make law school testing more accessible and inclusive to a diverse applicant pool, while providing ample evidence upon which to evaluate applicants’ aptitude for the study of law.  \nWhich admissions test will be given the most weight inthe admissions decision?  \nThe Law School Admission Test (LSAT) will remain the primary admission test, and the vast majority of applicants will be admitted with a LSAT score.  \nAm I required to subscribe to and use the Law School Admission Council (LSAC) Credential Assembly Services (CAS) if I do not have an LSAT score to report?  \nYes. All elements of the application must be submitted through CAS. The completed application for admission, your academic transcript(s), letters of recommendation, personal statement, resume, and other addenda you choose to submit as part of your application are processed by LSAC and delivered electronically to us through your CAS subscription service.  \nHow will Mercer Law School know which valid test score(s) I have and planto submit for consideration?  \nYou must complete the questions on our application for admission that require you to indicate the test (LSAT or GRE) for which you have valid score(s)Your LSAT score(s) will be sent electronically to Mercer Law School as part of your CAS report.  \nCan I submit a GRE score in place of my LSAT score if I already have a valid LSAT score?  \nNo. If you have a valid LSAT score(s), that score will be used to evaluate your application.  \nWill more consideration be given to the verbal or quantitative section of the GRE?  \nBoth sections will be considered and respective scores averaged to represent a general percentile score.  \nIf I have scores on the LSAT and the GRE, which scores will be reported?  \nMercer Law School will follow the methodology established by the accreditation or evaluative entity when reporting scores on the LSAT and/or on alternative tests.  \nHELPFUL LINKS  \nGRE – Taking the Test  \nGRE –Sending Your Scores  \nCreating a CAS Account with LSAC  \nAdditional Questions?  \nContact Mercer Law Office of Admissions Email: [admissions@law.mercer.edu](admissions@law.mercer.edu)  \n[Phone:](Phone:) (478) 301-2605","cbCaivYboO538zVR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivYboO538zVR","pdf",97054,2,1,"English","en",105,"# Frequently Asked Questions\n## GRE acceptance and admissions weighting\n## CAS submission and score reporting\n## GRE sections and score consideration\n## Helpful links and contact","[{\"question\":\"Why does Mercer Law School accept the GRE instead of the LSAT for some applicants?\",\"answer\":\"Mercer Law School accepts the GRE as an alternative admissions test to improve accessibility and inclusivity for applicants who have not taken the LSAT, while still providing evidence to evaluate law study aptitude.\"},{\"question\":\"Which admissions test will be weighted the most in the admissions decision?\",\"answer\":\"The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) remains the primary admission test, and the vast majority of applicants are admitted with an LSAT score.\"},{\"question\":\"If I do have an LSAT score, can I submit a GRE score in place of it?\",\"answer\":\"No. If you have a valid LSAT score(s), that score will be used to evaluate your application, rather than the GRE.\"}]","GRE -
