For the last month or so mine have been. Each one timed with an RC experimental.

I wasn't distracted by checking the time and making sure my pace was good. Not sure what this means for Monday. Feel like I should still bring a watch but I have a feeling ill constantly keep checking.

As for test 68, it was tame in RC and LG, but followed this strategy for LR: The usual breakdown of question difficulty on LR is 10 "easy", 10 medium, and 5-6 hard, scattered randomly, but in succession usually. PT 68 instead decided to give us 15 easy questions and 10-11 hard ones. I don't appreciate that lol, primarily because I see the medium questions as easy anyway.
I'm preparing for the worst, but I hope June is nothing like these two tests.

June is a new LSAT season, so maybe that leads to new/different things.

I think i may have stacked saturday a little too much. Which of those things should I get rid of and which should I definitely do?
Edit Added: I dont want to be burned out come Monday, and maybe me not doing these PT's or extra sections may actually benefit me more, and I should just do good a review of past PT's. And that way if i retake in October ill have 1 test i have never taken before.lol
The LG packets are all of the games from pt's 60-68 that i got -1 or more on while drilling today , I have printed them out and made 3 packets of 6 games each.

This looks like way too much to me. I'd cut back on Sunday and take it as a day to relax. I would also definitely not do the hardest logic games right before the exam. I would probably even cut back some on Saturday.

I would go with a timed 5-section PT on Saturday, plus maybe another section and reading, and then Sunday do no more than review the PT and another 2 sections?
Personally, I've been taking it fairly easy the past few days, so I'm going to do a 5 section PT, review, and another practice section or two that gave me trouble in the past.

This. I'm starting to think I hang out with idiots. Everyone I know that is going to law school is impressed that I got a 162 and got into Notre Dame. It's like, "WOW. A T-25!"
MKX wrote:Only worse than talking to friends about law school is talking to your university's pre law advisor. My advisor tried getting me to go to John Marshall here in Chicago. Spent my first year and a half building this school up and had me wanting to go there. Then I started to research law schools and where I want to go and how john Marshall compares to other Chicago law schools.
Haven't gone back to see him since. Also found out my school has an agreement with john Marshall of some sorts. Lol what a joke.
Friends and other people are also bad. They think getting into any law school is impossible and as long as you go to any law school you'll be fine.
