Hi everyone.

So say my full first name is "Michael Jonathan". However, I just realized that my name is displayed as a shortened version: "Michael Jon" on LSAC and on my LSAT score reports. I believe when I made my LSAC account/register for the LSAC, I was not able to insert my whole first name.

Should I be concerned about this when I submit my law applications? Or do you think it is ok as they will match my LSAC account #? Also, should I submit a name change form to LSAC?

Thank you.

Hi Apple,

I don't believe this will be a problem if you left it as-is, but with LSAC I never assume anything, and so I'd update it with them and give them all the forms they need just to make sure you have all the bases covered :-D

So, go ahead and submit the form to them, and then you know you won't have to wonder about this.

Thanks!
