Listen ""The LSAT is racist.""

Episode Synopsis

The research has been done, and the law review articles have been written.   @Honeypacpod, along with LSAC and anyone else who reads these scholar's research, have evidence that the LSAT is a psychometrically unsound examination, and it's time that we abandon it from a practical, ethical and logical perspective. It has no place in a world that looks for equity in justice. Thinking the LSAT is racist isn't a fringe or unpopular musing – it's a fact.  Look at the data, and look at the research of these professors. It's time for the LSAT to be abolished.   Words from: Professor Vernellia R.
