How much does the LSAT saturate though? The SAT, particularly the math section, is already very saturated at the top percentiles, which make up almost the entire application pool to the elite schools. That's why those schools basically just use the SAT as a quick screener now, if they use it at all. Raising scores even more would further diminish its utility and could increase the impact of a silly mistake.
The LSAT isn't nearly as saturated at the top. As the article mentions, in normal years there are only about 700 applicants in the 175-180 range (roughly the top .5%). Compare this with the SAT, where there are over 50,000 students annually in the 1500+ range.
Even at Harvard and Yale Law, the median score is outside this range (173), and all other schools have a lower median.
