Hey guys and gals. I haven't posted in a while but I wanted to wish everyone luck. I know from my lurking you've all been working hard and are more than capable of 99th percentile scores.
If you're looking for a quick way to boost confidence and maybe even get a little out of it tonight I'd recommend doing a timed 4 section retake. I did today and dominated it. Its a good way to abate anxiety about taking it easy before the test, boost morale, and reinforce technique you've learned from old Q's. As for me, I spent the rest of the day by the pool with my SO and took in some sunshine.
May your Ticonderogas be swift and deadly on Monday.
ETA: grammar

Took what was likely my final preptest earlier today. (PT 74). For the first time, I included a fifth "experimental" section, the identity of which was not apparent to me while taking the exam.

Disappointingly, I scored a 176 (Missing four!! questions in LR).

I say disappointingly because the previous three PT's had been 178, 177, and 180.

Also took LR2 with a dog on my lap, because thunder scares the dog.

I'm suddenly very curious what LSAC accommodations are like for service animals.

Here is a blog I wrote previously about the state of mind for LSAT game day. It won't help everyone, but I received so many emails from people who it did help I thought I would share. I hope you are one of those people this test day.

That's still a great score. I'm sure on test day you will achieve your goal score. Which is what by the way?

Thanks. My goal is to hit a 178 for the test. Looking at mylsn.info, it seems like there is a substantial difference in acceptances and money given between the 175-177 range and 178-180 range.

In total fairness I cannot be too disappointed with my progress so far. Only five weeks ago, I scored a 160 (or was it 162?) on my cold diagnostic. Three weeks ago, I was routinely hitting in the low 170s. Now, upper 170s.

If it really comes down to it, I will retake the exam in October!!

Yesterday's PT 73:

RC -4
LR1 -3
LG -2
LR2 -2
______
-11 = 171

LG was really draining. Yet, PT 73 in general was exhausting/frustrating. Oh well. Also, the concert/survey LR question was borderline ridiculous along with the sockeye salmon question. ugh.

Yeah the sockeye salmon question was absurd.

Popping over from October to wish you all good luck!

[Tycho]

Good luck to all of you tomorrow. I had a restful and fun weekend, might do some easy games later, and have a positive and confident mindset. I wish the same for all of you. Knock 'em dead.

DId a final PT: #70 .

LR1: -1
RC: -2 <---- freaking RC!!!!
LG: -0
LR2: -0

Overall, -3 questions for a 179. If I can replicate this on game day I think I will be okay.

VERY pleased with my improvement by the way. Went from a 162 about six weeks ago on a cold diag, to low 170s three weeks ago, to upper 170s (and a 180!) recently. LR has moved from multiple questions missed per section, to usually -1 or -0. RC went from -10 to -3 or fewer recently.

My six most recent tests have been: 179, 176, 180, 177, 175, 178!

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!
