Most law schools won't even consider your application without LSAT scores. In some rare cases, you can take law classes as a non-degree seeking student sans the LSAT. It's probably in your best interest to just take the test--my graduate program only wanted scores, they didn't care how good/bad.

There aren't any law schools that will accept a student without an LSAT score. The LSAT is absolutely a prerequisite to gaining admission to law school. If you don't score well, you can retake the test; however, the law schools to which you apply will be able to see both scores.
