[blindlaw] LSAT Prep Materials

[Haben Girma]

Hello all,

I appreciate the feedback. I found out some good news. Once a blind 
student is accepted to receive accommodations for the LSAT, the Law 
School Admissions Council will send that student, upon request, braille 
copies of previous LSATs for practice and study purposes. So, that's one 
of my plans. I'm also going to try to get one of the transcription 
agencies to braille an up-to-date LSAT study guide.
