This page explains how to contribute an article to LSATScoreConverter.com: the topics we publish, what we do not accept, the sourcing standards every piece must meet and how to send a pitch. We are a small, independent site, so we publish few guest articles and choose them for accuracy and usefulness to LSAT test takers.
1. What we publish
We publish plain, accurate explanations of how LSAT scores work and what they mean for law school applications. Pitches are most welcome on:
- how raw scores, scaled scores, score bands and percentiles relate;
- reading and using an LSAT score report;
- law school admissions data, such as the LSAT medians schools publish in their ABA 509 reports;
- first-hand experience of the test and the application process, clearly labelled as your own.
Every article sits alongside our tools, such as the LSAT Score Converter and the LSAT Percentiles, so it should help a reader understand a score, not sell a product.
2. What we do not accept
- Paid placements, sponsored posts or links sold for money. We do not accept payment for articles or links.
- Articles written mainly to place a link to a prep course, tutoring service or other business.
- Study tips, test-day advice or prep-course reviews, which sit outside what this site covers.
- Figures without a primary source, or claims about scores that LSAC or the ABA do not support.
- Text copied from elsewhere, or content published on another site first.
3. Sourcing and accuracy standards
Contributions follow the same rules as everything else on the site, set out in our Editorial Policy. In short: every LSAT figure must come from LSAC, every law school figure from the ABA or the school's own disclosure, and each source must be linked. Percentiles are described as LSAC defines them, the share of scores lower than yours.
Our Methodology and Sources lists the tables and reports our tools use. Where your figures overlap with them, they must match.
4. How to pitch
Email hello@lsatscoreconverter.com with the subject line "Write for us". Please include:
- a working title and a two or three sentence summary;
- the primary sources you plan to use;
- a short note on who you are and why you are the right person to write it;
- one or two links to things you have written, if you have them.
Send a pitch first, not a finished draft. We cannot promise to reply to every pitch.
5. Editing, bylines and credit
We edit every accepted article for accuracy, clarity and house style, and we check each figure against its source before publishing. We will send you the edited version before it goes live. Published articles carry your real name and a short bio. We do not publish under invented names.
We do not pay for contributions. If we update an article later, for example after LSAC publishes new percentiles, we may revise the figures and note the updated date.
6. Rights and originality
By sending an article you confirm it is your own original work and has not been published elsewhere. You keep your copyright and give LSATScoreConverter.com permission to publish, edit and keep the article on the site. Our Terms of Use apply to everything published here.
