Now everything is just a blur and I have no idea how well I did. I just remember going so fast. I had time to go back and check answers after each section (except LG) and I don't remember feeling like any LR section was that difficult - just that it…
-
this. I already treated myself to a sweater and a bottle of wine...now I just need the jeans. And I already made plans to re-read all the HP books. I started on SS/PS the night before the test
-
@dmtavera1 of course! Because that's the section I slayed but thank you!
-
Can someone please explain if the order is the same for everyone with 3 LR sections? Several people have asked but no one has answered. I cannot remember which questions were in which section, so I don't know which section was the experimental one. …
-
Can anyone confirm the order of the experimental LR section? Or is it not the same on every exam? I can't remember which questions were in which section, but I'm trying to figure out if the first or third LR section was the experimental.
-
Okay, a little drunk, but chiming in. LG is my worst section, but I mostly figured out the third one about the oil/watercolor one. I think I ended up skipping one Q on the second game and two on the third game and the entire fourth game... which i…

I second @Sami's advice! I've been doing a short workout every morning, cooking breakfast, and taking a bath (or maybe two) every night. It's done wonders. Also, I've been taking it easy on studying, stopping by noon every day or when I feel frust…

@DEC_LSAT Nice! I've been watching movies as well...and taking a lot of baths
-
Just back to say that this is the first time I've looked at the forums or anything LSAT related in 4 or so days! I'm enjoying my break
-
Thanks everyone! So funny how hard it is to get us to relax and take some time off
-
Thank you @"Cant Get Right". I think I knew that, I just needed to hear you say it
-
@dmtavera1 hey! Yes, I'm in Norman! When are you taking the test?
-
Thanks @"Alex Divine"! I will have completed most of the 70's tests. I don't really think a 170 is possible this time unless I'm lucky, but like I said I just need a score to finish my application. I've heard from past OU Law students that OU will…
-
I'm in the same boat as you. I'm taking two PT this week (77 and 79) and otherwise focusing on LG because it is my weakest section. Next week I'm not going to take any full, timed PT but I think I will take one timed section per day switching betw…
-
@"Cant Get Right" the former! I'm dedicated to the 7sage way
-
Thanks @"Cant Get Right"! Maybe I was being a little too optimistic because I've been trying to take 3 PT a week for the last month and yet I only ever take 2.
-
Also: focus on the types of games you are doing worst on. Everyone is different. Oddly enough, I struggle the most with sequencing games while finishing the harder grouping and in/out games pretty fast.
-
Logic games is probably key, as others have said. I've been in a similar situation to yours and just recently scored, for the first time, around 165. I have also been struggling with the games, and while the fool proof method is surely the best wa…
-
Thanks @"Alex Divine"! I think it's important to share the good moments as well because it's so easy on the bad days to think "I must just suck at this test" and want to give up. I know I didn't always believe people on here when they told me it w…
-
@"Alex Divine" Yea, I don't really like their erasers either. That's why I first though of "breaking them in". Then, I thought about the wearing them down to a point thing. I haven't tried it out during a real PT yet but I'll let you know!
-
So, today I was thinking it would be a good idea to "pre-erase" the eraser on my noricas but just on one side so that the eraser wears down to a nice little point to quickly erase an answer bubble. I mean, hopefully you won't need to use it but it …
-
I'm 29! Just saw this thread for the first time, I'm so happy not to be alone!
-
When I took a proctored PT, the thing that annoyed me the most was other test takers turning the pages of their test, which cannot be helped obviously. Probably a public or university library is the best.
-
@"Cant Get Right" when will the BR group start back up?
-
Thanks so much everyone! Seriously, I needed all of this encouragement/advice. @JamesKent3 @"Alex Divine" @nanchito @David3389 @draj0623
-
Thanks so much for this advice! @legal_name
-
thanks @ajcrowel! I remember my advisor saying something like "you're not going to receive a lot more financial aid for a 165 than you would with a 158" but I just thought if I did well above a 165, I might be able to get a full ride or something. …
-
@kirstinlynn.klein Yep You can withdraw up to the day before the test. You don't get a refund, but law schools you are applying to won't be able to see that you've postponed (correct me if I'm wrong, anyone!).
-
@danielznelson I haven't ever retaken a PT and I didn't even know that was a strategy, so double thanks!
-
Take a break from full PT. That's what I did recently. Take full sections of older tests instead and focus on drilling your weak spots. In a few weeks, try a full test again.
