Hello,

I am trying to find a good watch to use on test day. I came across the 180 watch, which seems extremely helpful. Although their website says it can be used on test day, I was wondering if that is actually true. Does anyone have any insight about watches like this? http://180watch.com

Although I would prefer that watch, I am looking into other options as a backup plan in case it doesn't work. Can you bring two watches into the center on test day in case one is not allowed? Is there anyway to check with LSAC to see if a certain watch is allowed?

The best alternate watch I have found so far is http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/ ... schooli-20. However it displays the day of the week and the date. Is this allowed? If not, does anyone have suggestions for a watch with a countup rotating bezel with the seconds marked in increments of five?

Thanks for your help!

Hello tlwilliams4,

LSAC mentions bringing only one watch, see http://www.lsac.org/jd/lsat/day-of-test . That being said, I'm not sure that proctors would harass you for bringing a spare. That link also has contact info if you want to ask them personally.

This post on a law-related blog discusses the "Can I bring two watches" issue: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... p?t=209716 .

Re the other questions, I am not a watch expert, but someone else may want to weigh in. In any case, practice doing things quickly and accurately so that you won't have to worry as much about exactly how many seconds you have left! Best of luck,

Hope this helps,
David
