2020 LSAT India, last date to apply for LSAT India exam has been extended till 7 June. An announcement was made in this regard by Law School Admission Council (LSAC), the organisation which conducts the exam.
There is another point with regards to 2020 LSAT India. Another special feature as far as this exam is concerned is that this time the popular exam will be conducted online.

A pass in 2020 LSAT India provides an opportunity to its applicants to study law courses at prestigious educational institutions located across the country.
Many educational institutions in India consider the score obtained in 2020 LSAT India (LSAT India) while providing admission to law courses.
Some of them who consider 2020 LSAT India are Jindal Global Law School, O.P. Jindal Global University, JLU School of Law, Jagran Lakecity University and IFIM Law School.
The other educational institutions to recognise 2020 LSAT India scores are Vijaybhoomi School of Law (Vijaybhoomi University), SVKM’s NMIMS Kirti P. Mehta School of Law, Hindustan School of Law (Hindustan Institute of Technology and Law).

Manav Rachna University are also among educational institutions that accept 2020 LSAT India score.
Currently, the LSAT—India is the only law school admission test for multiple colleges that is available for safe online testing during the COVID-19 emergency.
