There's about 100 days to prepare for the October Admin of the test.

Studying for about 5 hours per day, is this enough time?

Just wondering how u all feel about this...

Thanks

5 hours a day for 100 days straight is 500 hours, which equals over 20 days combined of studying. A little overkill eh?

Haha, maybe to some people 500 hrs is overkill.

I started studying in May, finishing my LRB and LGB and getting the basics down pat. The next 3 months will be all PTs and review.

If you really want to enter a good law school, you'll do whatever it takes.

Watch out for overkill. It will seriously catch up with you. I doubt its productive to study for more than 4 hours a day, though everybody is different. After 4 hours I think reading and logic puzzles (sudoku) might be a better way to spend your time if you really want to keep going. Oh and extra reading is key, especially if you are not in school, you want to be able to keep up your speed and comprehension (will help for RC and LR)

Definitely watch out for potential burn-out.

If your brain refuses to function during critical points on test day, all those hours you put into studying will be wasted.

It's about studying smartly. You don't want to risk burning through all the PTs way before test day.
