The American Bar Association is considering dropping the requirement that applicants take a standardized admissions test to gain entry into law school.
The proposal follows years of plummeting enrollment in law schools and an evolving job market for graduates.
In February 2016, the University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law became the first law school in the country to accept the Graduate Record Examination, a test typically used for graduate school admissions, rather than the Law School Admission Test, known as the LSAT, as part of the application process.
Harvard Law School became the second to do so in the fall 2017. Since then, more than a dozen schools have followed suit.
