If your LSAT administration was canceled this weekend, you should be getting another email from the LSAC in the next few days; when weather gets in the way of an exam, they try to schedule a make-up test within two to three weeks. Here are some things you should do if your LSAT was canceled: Hang on to your admission ticket; this will get you into the make-up test when it’s scheduled. If schools are waiting on your LSAT score, give them a call to explain that your test was delayed. Keep practicing! A postponement is disappointing, but it’s a great chance to take a few more practice tests. For students whose Knewton LSAT prep memberships were set to end last weekend, we’re extending your courses until the make-up exams are finished. Next weekend is a holiday, so chances are most re-tests will be the weekend of February 19th or 26th. In the meantime, keep up the hard work!

It’s the day before Thanksgiving. As the day progresses, your college campus will increasingly take on the look and feel of a ghost town-it may already be one if you’re one of those lucky students whose school didn’t even hold classes today. However, gorging themselves on home cooking is not the only thing college students are anticipating this weekend. Right on the heels of Thanksgiving comes finals week for most college students in the country. So while you’re packing for the weekend with your family and rushing to join the mass exodus from the dorm, you may find yourself throwing in some homework along with the laundry you plan to do at home and you may find yourself hurrying to finish a paper before you run out the door.
