Lebo Grad Earns Highest Score On Law School Admission Test

Paul Wagoner has always been good with numbers. "From an early age, I was kind of pushed at math," he said, laughing. "It's kind of the chicken-or-the-egg thing: I'm adept at math because they pushed me or they pushed me because I'm adept at math."

Mr. Wagoner, 21, a 2005 Mt. Lebanon High graduate, will be a senior at the University of Virginia. In high school, he scored 1560 on the SAT college board test when 1600 was the highest score possible.

But he didn't take for granted a natural aptitude for test-taking, he said. He took a Princeton Review course in preparation for the SAT, and recently, a Kaplan course helped him achieve something even more unusual: a perfect 180 on the LSAT, the Law School Admission Test.
