I'm definitely not an early riser (sleep-wise), waking up anywhere from 12-2 at the earliest. The later i can sleep, the happier i am when i wake up
I can't even fathom sleeping that much of my day away. Even on a day where I can sleep in, my body won't allow me to sleep past 8am. The latest I have slept in EVER is probably 10am.
Yeah I used to do the 2pm thing when I was still in school, but now I can't sleep past nine.

Don't get me wrong, i love the perks of waking up early i'm just not acclimated yet. During the school year i would sleep at 11, and wake up at around 6:30-7, go to the gym and begin my day. I've just gotten stuck on this late schedule cause when i hang with my friends we tend to stay out late, which inevitably causes me to wake up later as well

Sooo... I replaced my morning coffee with Synchro Genesis (1/4 c + 8oz almond milk), and I feel pretty good! I can best compare it to the stimulation you get from drinking strong black tea -- brightness and awareness without the shakes. It actually tastes pretty good, too (it includes chocolate whey protein), but the price is kind of ridic -- 14 servings for $22. I know that it's basically the same price as a cup of coffee in a shop these days, but it's annoying to spend almost $1.70 a serving and have to clean your own blender.

Focus/energy is comparable to being in sweet spot in caffeine stimulation, but perhaps my body will adjust with time. I JYPinged a few LGs and am feeling very optimistic. Ready to face the reality of LR...

PT 62
RC -3
LR1 -0
LG -3
LR2 -4
Score: 173

Slightly disappointed in RC but not too bad.

Felt like the first LR was easy and that the second had some really tricky questions

Found the LG about stained glass to be tough, so I missed 2 there (from not answering) then I decided to act really dumb and misread a rule on the last game that disallowed me from answering a super easy question

Still, I'm happy my score stayed in my normal range, even if it is thanks to an easy LR section

idk i know every1 thinks im talking about my behind bout the TCDS machine but radiolab did a story about it and sounds very intriguing basically the only thing holding back TCDS at this point is a large field experiment bc all the studies conducted thus far have had small sample sizes but imagine using this type of thing on the LSAT and basically performing your best that youve ever performed on the lsat every time. how much would you be willing to pay just for the chance that something might do that for you?

omg whatever here is the freaking link just freaking click on it im done w this

Is it just me of is PT 61 abnormally difficult? Granted I was really hungry in the middle of the exam, but my study partner and I both scored well below our averages. The only part that I found particularly challenging was RC, but it was REALLY hard. Is this representative of the more recent tests?

No, I believe you. I'm not even skeptical, it's just the idea is a little uncomfortable.

Do you listen to classical music at all? Do you meditate? Eat blueberries? Take fish oil? Have a lot of sex?
