Here's a chart showing the trend in LSAT takers since 1987

The New York Times ran a story on Tuesday discussing the recent decline in LSAT test takers.  Included is this chart showing the total number of test takers from June through December of each year since 1987 (the February figures have been omitted because the 2011 test hasn't been given yet).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The decline in total June to December LSAT test-takers from last year to this year is 10%.  You can read the rest of the story here - although we already blogged the pertinent details here and here.
