[blindlaw] LSAT accomodations

[Jim McCarthy]

Nicole,
I took the LSAT many years ago and did not do well on some of the logic
games sets. I am totally blind and used a braille writer. The problem for me
with this was that I could not move the items around quickly enough in the
manner the question might direct. I do think this could be achieved with
excel or a spread sheet program so at least one could put all in order as
the question requires. From that point, it is at least some bit closer to
equal in analyzing the layout of the characters and applying the conditions.

Just to expound on this commentary, how should a person with low vision best
approach the logic games? I have taken this test before and was unable to
fully demonstrate and complete this portion of the exam period should I use
an Excel spreadsheet? If so why and how?
