Week of Feb LSAT - Hell for me

So the week leading up to my Feb LSAT date, I have 1 French test, 1 history midterm, 1 Anthro paper due and another history paper due. I'm going to try to talk to my professors to see if I can get some kind of extension, but if they say no, what should I do? Suggestions?

I'd also like some advice on how to go about asking for these extensions. I haven't had the greatest of luck with getting extensions in the past. Maybe it's something to do with my face making them angry.

That sounds stressful but what I eventually realized about the LSAT is that the week before the test is not the time for serious studying - just review and getting your mind off the test so you can be relaxed and focused. If you have studied hard and are studying hard now by that time maybe those tests will distract you from worrying about the LSAT and it will be a good thing. Just do your best to get a good night's sleep the night before. Good luck!

Week before the test is the time to get yourself psyched up, not freaked out. Just do what you have to do and don't screw up your GPA for a test you can retake.
