Deans from more than half the nation’s law schools are now backing a proposal that would enable schools to admit up to 25% of new students without a Law School Admission Test or any standardized test score.
Instead of permitting law schools to go fully test-optional as planned, the proposal represents a compromise between the existing rule, which lets schools admit up to 10% of the class without such scores, and the American Bar Association‘s call for eliminating the standardized test requirement altogether by 2025.
The ABA seems likely to push again to eliminate the LSAT.

Gilead Sciences did not infringe U.S. government patents with its HIV-prevention regimen using its drugs Truvada and Descovy, a federal jury said on Tuesday, handing the government a defeat in its billion-dollar lawsuit.
The federal government argued that Gilead failed to compensate the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for discovering that its drug Truvada, which was first approved to treat HIV, could also help prevent infection by the virus.
The lawsuit appears to mark the first time the U.S. government sued a drugmaker to enforce its patent rights.
