Felt the same way at the beggining of the week, stay warm, drink a lot of water, eat some spicy foods and lots of carbs.....NOTHING will happen to you...I promise!!
Wearing a giant sweater and eating hot sauce covered vegetables right now...I'm determined to sweat this out by Friday latest! I hope you're right Lou!!
Tomorrow you'll wake up like new:

Where did you find this picture of me?

if we're going to get a messed up logic game .. I honestly would prefer a circle game rather than some other insane thing

Now I'm thinking of the Joni Mitchell/Tom Rush song "Circle Game" and it's stuck in my head haha.
Onward to 180.......

Also, did PT70 today. Thought the first three sections weren't bad, one of the easier RCs I have seen IMO, but the last 10 or so in the last LR section were trickier.

I did a PT on the airplane last week, with almost no light, freezing cold, crazy turbulence, a constantly-screaming baby one row up, and 2 hours of sleep, figured it was a good way to simulate the worst possible conditions.

Folks who are sick, get well soon!! Zinc lozenges tend to help me with colds.

Sounds like my October test center.

sliz i actually feel so bad for you.

I wake up every morning and first think I do is check if my throat / nose is runny or hurts. I've never been this paranoid.
I've been fearing this for weeks, but at least it's not the day before the test. Hopefully my immune system will rally and it'll be gone by then

slizerd!! take echinacea too. does wonders for your immune system. and drink so. much. water. take hot steamy showers. plenty of rest. you'll be killing two birds with one stone because it will help your brain too. eat some ash reshteh

My aunt makes the best ash reshteh, I wish she was here now haha. It's not even nine yet, but I'm gonna take some nyquil and try to pass out. Hopefully I'll be normal again by the morning!

[+] Spoiler
yes fined for a childrens book but the principle is "has previously been fined for overdue books" this does not specify that they cannot previously of been fined for childrens books which are BOOKS. Like I literally went back changed my answer then said no wait they are both right. I guess I could see why B should be chosen since it does not specify a childrens book such as A but seriously there is nothing that makes A wrong.

[+] Spoiler: There's nothing in A that suggests that the books he has are overdue. The Application states that three of the books (we aren't told how many he actually has out, maybe 100), are overdue and, since he must be fined, we can deduce that he had been previously fined, but we need to know that one of his three overdue books is NOT a children's book. That's what answer choice B does; it tells you specifically that one of the books that is overdue is not a children's book, coupled with our inference makes it the best answer. Choice A could be referring to any number of books that he has, but not necessarily the ones that are overdue.

As I sit here cuddling with my cats, I echo your sentiments. My SO probably won't be happy if I do poorly, no because he's super invested in my LSAT score, but because I'm not very fun to be around when stressed about school stuff

Retook the October test and ran into some of the same problems I had on test day...Did anyone find the first LR section harder than usual? I got a 163 on it and on the actual test I got a 15x. What do I do if I'm missing some of the same questions that I missed on test day? It's really crazy how exact it is and I'm realizing I was set up for failure by taking that hard ass LR section first.

Really considering withdrawing. If I don't apply this cycle I'm going to have to waste a year of my life in limbo, but this will also be my second take and I can't mess it up. I wanted to PT in the 170s before taking again but I've been usually scoring between 163-167 on my PT's. I'll be happy with a score between that range. Before the October test, I was scoring around the 160-162 range but my score actual score dropped to the 150s.
