ABA and law schools need to improve their admission process concerning the LSAT. While it is encouraging to see the shift towards online and hybrid options instead of traditional brick-and-mortar setups, they still lag in addressing the needs of mid-career professionals with advanced degrees who wish to pursue law. For example, clinicians in their 40s, with extensive experience and qualifications such as an MD, PhD, fellowship, and post-doctoral work, should not have to take the LSAT. The GRE is sometimes offered as an alternative, but other exams, like the Medical Board exam, are much more rigorous than standard admission tests. Requiring these seasoned professionals to prepare for the LSAT is not the best use of their time, which could be better spent on their first-year law courses. California's initiative to create programs that do not require the LSAT is commendable, and it is hoped that the rest of the country will follow suit, urging the ABA to implement these necessary changes.
What do you mean "except pregnant people"? Did they discriminate against you? If so, the school has violated your constitutional rights? But if the case is that the school is a fast pace then that's a different story. Most Law Schools give pregnant woman a leave of absence (approx. 8 months) so they can return back to school.
