So I am doing really well on my practice test (gotten above a 170 on the last 5 and a 176 on the last one i took) I'm just nervous that test day I will underperform due to nerves. Your lsat score is so important so how do you not psych yourself out come test day? Any strategies to stay calm? Or advice on what to do/ eat/ bring that helped you on the actual day.

dude, get some perspective. if i was sitting on 6 consecutive 170 +'s i'd be feeling confident as shit. you're on the top end of all people that even take this test.

i'm pretty worried about having to take a piss. 3 consecutive sections + coffee = i might have to wear an adult diaper.

You can't go less than two hours without needing to pee? Is your bladder the size of a walnut?

To OP, bro u are out performing the test now, and you will kick its ass later. You probably only miss questions because the test keeps bullshitting you. Don't listen to that bs about how ppl under perform on the test. Remember you're a Damn machine, they are human. You have the test down to a science and its gonna stay that way once you sit the test. Hell you should be asking TLS about if they will drug test you after you beast the test. GL in October. I'm talking about the test not you.

But on another note to help myself I try to simulate test day as much as possible. I do my pts with my shoes on. I make sure my desk is clear. I sometimes have my girlfriend sit next to me to simulate the room I would have. I turn my ac to 70 degrees. I don't drink or eat during this time. I take 5 sections. I sometimes do the writing. I take an
11min break and I give myself 33mins to simulate a dumb Procter. I male sure the lights are bright. I do as much as possible to simple testday

Bruss does your GF sit there the whole time? Poor girl.
OP, you need to walk in the that testing room crazy confident. Just sit quietly and listen as the people around you talk about how they hope to to break 150 and get into the local TTT. A little elitism goes a long way. I was PTing in your range and hit my high on test day.
Also, LOL at this:
