Enter your LSAT scaled score from 120 to 180 and get your official percentile rank from the LSAC percentile table for the 2023–2026 testing years, plus the full score-to-percentile chart.
| Input | Result |
|---|---|
| 160 | 71.06% of test takers scored lower |
| 170 | 94.48% of test takers scored lower |
| 150 | 36.56% of test takers scored lower |
| 180 | 99.85% of test takers scored lower |
Your LSAT score is not a percentage and not a raw count. LSAC converts the number of questions you answered correctly into a scaled score from 120 to 180 using a process called equating, which exists so that a 160 means the same thing regardless of which form you sat or which year you sat it. There is no penalty for wrong answers.
The conversion in the other direction, scaled score to percentile, is stable enough that LSAC publishes it, and that is the table below. It covers the 2023–2024, 2024–2025 and 2025–2026 testing years, and it tells you the percentage of test takers who scored lower than each score.

Many sites publish a raw-to-scaled conversion chart. The problem is that no such chart can be correct for your test: LSAC builds a separate conversion for every LSAT form, so a "67 correct = 170" row that held for one administration can be a point or two off on the next. Anything presented as a fixed table is an estimate. The percentile conversion above is the opposite case, it is published by LSAC and does not depend on which form you sat.
The LSAT reports a scaled score from 120 to 180. The number of questions you get right is your raw score, and that raw score is converted to the scaled score through equating, which adjusts for small differences in difficulty between test forms. There is no penalty for wrong answers, so never leave a question blank.
Not reliably. LSAC does not publish a single raw-to-scaled conversion table: every LSAT form has its own conversion, which is exactly why the score is equated in the first place. Two forms with the same number of correct answers can differ by a point or two. The percentile conversion in the other direction is stable and is published officially, which is what this calculator uses.
The published table covers the three most recent testing years, currently 2023–2024, 2024–2025 and 2025–2026. Percentiles move slowly because the test taker pool changes slowly, so a shift of a point or two between updates is normal.
Every ABA-approved law school publishes the 25th and 75th percentile LSAT scores of its entering class in its annual 509 disclosure. Compare your percentile against those two numbers rather than against a national average, being above a school's 75th percentile makes your LSAT an asset in that application, and being below its 25th makes it a hurdle.
A 150 sits at about the 37th percentile, meaning roughly two thirds of test takers scored higher. It is not a score that will carry an application at a selective school, and because the LSAT can be retaken, a student scoring in the 140s or low 150s with time to prepare usually gains more from another attempt than from anything else in the application.
