I've re taken:

PT 50 (from 5 months ago): 168 >_< RC hurt me on this one at -7, but I've tried to think a little more while reading and it seems to be helping!

PT 60 (from 2 months ago): 171, I'm okay with this, the games section I went -3, as well as RC and LR1, but did a bit better with only -1 on LR2. Mostly stupid mistakes from not studying for almost a month.

I also took 57 (fresh) today, and I felt horrible after it. Dinos killed me, and I felt like shit about both LR sections. I'm going to blind review after a bit of a break. I'll then take 65 Thursday as my last fresh PT, with game day Saturday. Hopefully this will be a bit easier than October!
This saturday? So those people that got their tests lost and were invited to retake on the 10th was a real thing?
Yeah I was the guy who posted that. Whoever accepted the rewrite this Saturday from my centre will be writing as well. I'm hoping this week is enough to refresh though.

Best of luck dude. They should bump you an extra 2-3 points just for screwing with you so bad...

Thanks! I would absolutely love that, but a rewrite + refund isn't too bad. I felt a little shaky about October's as well, so I'm hoping I can turn this in my favour.

Did PT 53 over the weekend for a 170. I wen't -4 on RC which is pretty bad for me. Damned English common law and surprisingly, the science passage about mites. I think it was brain fatigue that got me. It just drives home the point that I need to do a lot of timed PTs between now and then.

I get test anxiety, too. I didn't used to, but I've been out of school so long that timed tests are foreign to me. I've said it before though, realizing that life will go on with or without law school has helped me calm down immensely. Now, I just need to remember that in Dec. b/c stress is what kills me during the real deal.

Ditto, but luckily I've had the same realization as you. It's definitely reflected in my practice, too. Most of my LG drilling is at about 6:00 per game, rarely missing any. No idea.

It's because the brain functions so much better when it's not busy FREAKING OUT.

Haven't been this stressed out since Nov 1, the Day of the Great LSAT Disappointment.

May our hopes be realized this time, ladies and gents! :D

ETA: and yes, I assume we are all rooting for the right candidate
