-

The Law School Admission Council (LSAC) will hold the LSAT 2021 in India over a period of two weeks starting from 10 May.

According to a report in The Indian Express, the exam will be held online and students will be able to take the law entrance test from the confines of their homes. The decision has been taken due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation.

The report adds that LSAT-India will be administered through an artifical intelligence-assisted remote proctoring to ensure that the exams are given with integrity. The exam will be divided into several days and slots, to accommodate a large number of test-takers.

Candidates who are interested in the examination can register at discoverlaw.in/register-for-the-test.

The report added that students who register prior to 15 January will have to pay a special early-bird price of Rs 3,499. Students who register post 15 January, will have to pay a sum of Rs 3,799.

Speaking about the LSAT-India 2021 test with NDTV, LSAC President and CEO Kellye Testy said that they are committed towards ensuring that students can pursue their educational goals despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Testy added that they made the switch from the traditional paper-and-pencil test to the online mode in response to the COVID-19 emergency.

Stating that thousands of students have already successfully taken the online 2020 LSAT-India during the summer, they are using the experience to make the 2021 LSAT-India even better for students.

Once the registration period is over, candidates will receive scheduling details and instructions on how to take the test online. LSAC will provide additional details about LSAT in the weeks ahead.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-

After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu

Aditya L1 Mission: Spacecraft is nearing its final phase, says ISRO chief

-
Aditya L1 spacecraft is nearing its final phase, and manoeuvres to enter the L1 point are expected to be completed by January 7, 2024, according to ISRO Chairman S Somanath. “Aditya is on the way. I think it has reached almost its final phase,” the ISRO chief told PTI on the sidelines of an event organised at VSSC to commemorate the 60th year of the First Sounding Rocket Launch. Aditya L1, India’s first space-based mission to study the Sun, was successfully launched on September 2 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Sriharikota. The spacecraft, after travelling about 1.5 million km from Earth over 125 days, is expected to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1, considered closest to the Sun. He said that the last preparations for the spacecraft’s entry into the L1 point are currently underway incrementally.”Possibly by January 7th, the final manoeuvres will be done for entering into the L1 point,” Somanath added. Among other tasks, it will capture and tr
