I'm taking the LSAT for the first time this saturday.

What are some tips for each section? Based on personal experience, things mentioned by other people, etc

Reset your analog watch to 12:00 right before each section. Good luck this Saturday!

This. It's a minor thing compared to everything else going on on test day, so it's easy to forget. But don't! Also, good luck, OP! Confidence is absolutely vital on test day!

Or, set it to :25/:30...I find the mind can work quicker when judging the hand based off the up position, rather than working down.

I'm sure this applies to LSAT as well so I regret not having drunk more water.

don't drink an energy drink or use other stimulants, UNLESS you used them while prepping. also, try to think about ways to get 8 hours+ of sleep. many people take the LSAT on about 4 hours of sleep because they're so anxious and can't fall asleep the night before.
