Law is one of the most verbally demanding professions there is.

That makes a non-verbal IQ test an interesting experiment for lawyers: it removes the skill you use most and tests the reasoning underneath.

Law's own reasoning tests

LSAT (US, Canada and elsewhere): logical reasoning and reading comprehension. Its analytical reasoning section, the famous logic games, was removed in August 2024.
LNAT (UK): used by several UK universities for law, with reading-based multiple choice questions and an essay.
Watson-Glaser: a critical thinking test used by many law firms in graduate recruitment.

How this test works for lawyers

In one way it is the opposite of the LSAT: there is no text to parse. You spot patterns, rules and relationships in diagrams. Rule questions, where you work out a transformation and apply it, are the closest thing to legal reasoning.

Verbal strength does not help here, so do not be surprised if your result differs from your LSAT percentile.
Timed at 12 minutes. Answer what you can and keep moving.

What scores mean for lawyers

You may see claims that top law school admits average 125 or more. There is no solid published figure.

LSAT percentiles are measured against other law school applicants, a stronger group than the general population, so an LSAT percentile and an IQ percentile are not directly comparable.

Why the logic games disappeared

The LSAT's analytical reasoning section was dropped after a 2019 legal settlement with blind test takers, who argued that the diagram-heavy logic games put them at an unfair disadvantage. The Law School Admission Council agreed to redesign the test, and from August 2024 the section was replaced by a second logical reasoning section.

It illustrates a wider point in testing: a question format can end up measuring something other than what it was designed to measure, which is why good test makers check every item for fairness.
