The New LSAT Writing Format

On July 31, LSAC will introduce a brand new LSAT Writing assessment, moving from the traditional “decision prompt” construction, to a far-more involved-and 15-minute longer-design that includes a real-world issue accompanied by multiple, outside perspectives on it, all up for debate. Candidates will then craft an essay that not only tackles the issue at hand, but also assesses at least one of the accompanying viewpoints. In Episode 149, Dave and Jon break down every detail!

If I already have an LSAT writing on file in the old format but plan to take the LSAT after August, will I still need to complete the new LSAT writing, or will my existing LSAT writing be sufficient?
