When does panic mode start for everyone?

It's starting to set in now.

I did really well on a PT the other day, but it was old (again, I don't have much new stuff left) and not fully simulated (my mom walked in and starting having a convo with me in the middle of a section, so I ended up taking a break after 2 sections rather than 3) so I'm not really trusting that score. I'm terrified to take another PT and see a huge drop from that, especially so close to the test.

I've been drilling instead. Drilling has become comforting.

I LOLd. this is so true. It's like a nice break from sections and PTs

Don't let the scores get to you. Just take a PT without checking the actual score. You still check your answers and get good practice under timed condition, but the "number" won't cause any anxiety if you don't know it

I only have a few fresh LG and RC sections left, all of which are in the range of 39 - 51. My plan is to take all of those sections separately under timed conditions between now and Dec.

Took 39 RC this morning, went -2. BR -0. The section overall felt pretty difficult, and I was slightly pressed for time towards the end, so I'm happy with the outcome.

The plan is to drill LR between now and 5:00, then take 39 LG after work, followed by some un/determined assignment drills.

No one cares what your plans after work are...

I want a smoothie. Should I get a peanut butter based, banana strawberry based, or not get a smoothie? Oh decisions.

PB for the win. I really like PB&J smoothies!

When in doubt, get both.

Did 6 untimed RC humanities passages today, 10 random mix of games with 7sage review, and drilled the games that I studied few days ago to get accuracy and timing down. Trying to get some stuff in before I go into the city and drink my face off (it's my buddy's 21st, aka last "fun" thing before the evening of December 6th).

Both!? I wish I could handle that much smoothie!!

PB&J it is! Thanks, my fellow December hopefuls!

Have fun! I love 21st bdays because it's always fun watching your friends do stupid shit while intoxicated.

Have fun, definitely don't drink once we are within a few days of the test though. I have experimented on multiple occasions drinking moderately and lightly the day before taking some PTs. Even on the days I felt fine, I still had at least a guaranteed 3 point+ decrease from my average PT score. That includes nights where I would drink as little as 3 beers the night before. Maybe I'm just a light weight though

Or maybe you anticipate a score drop and psyche yourself out?

No, this is totally credited. IME, even if I just have one or two glasses of wine the night before a PT, and feel completely fine in the morning, I still invariably end up missing questions that I shouldn't be missing. Something about alcohol--even a tiny bit of alcohol--impedes my LSAT performance significantly.
