What if you tried working up to it, to ease the transition - one section, 15 minute break (mark the section if you need to), another section, 15 min break, etc? Something like that?

I may try that.

I honestly feel like the problem is me just abandoning all off the "processes" I have drilled the second I get in test mode. I mean My lowest BR score is a damned 177.

Had to guess on the final 2 of LR1, then finished LR2 before the proctor even called 5 minutes.

No RC/LG time issues.

Looking over the 5 questions I got wrong earlier during my timed LR section, and I just feel like a complete idiot. I didn't even suspect 3 of them as being wrong, and 2 I did and "BRed" them but in a very rushing manner so I could get back to my Judge's chambers. Should've taken more time to BR, but now that I'm doing it, I have no clue why I even chose some of these answers lmao.

There was this one question that gave me the BIGGEST issue out of the whole section. I thought it was one of the hardest in this section, and when I go to the 7sage video for it, this dude J.Y says it's an easy one and gave it a level 2 difficulty. *facepalm* I suck :lol:

One thing I'm learning from everyone's posts is when doing a timed section, calm down. Take a deep breath, pause for clarity, confirm the answer. At the end of the day, we have spent so much time prepping, it's nerves that are affecting progress and outcomes, with a spoon of luck of course lol.

Yeah I guess. I've had it all day but it got progressively worse towards like 4:30 when all of that rain started pouring down within 2 seconds.

OH, DID I MENTION THIS. When I was walking to the bus, I looked behind me for a second and a lightning strike hit down like 40 feet behind me! When I saw that shit, my headache got even worse. There was this lady who was a bit closer to it than I was and she screamed SO loud. Today was just not a good day.

Did about 6 timed sections of LG today - two all new ones. -2 on fake game set(misreading and dumb mistake) and -1 on PT C (bad logic). Not great and I'm still feeling pretty shaky. Tried to start a third new section but my brain is not there right now. Going to take a quick break and then hit LR and RC.
