Yeah the LR section has definitely changed in difficulty so I'm surprised the LR bible "2015 edition" makes no mention of this. Scored lower on test 70 today than other tests recently...not a great thing to have happen so close to test day. Was mostly due to LG though...3 days to improve LG .

PT 75 today - last PT before the real one (well last one ever hopefully) and I tied my best score ever so I'm happy I could end the prep on a high note. Now just to keep the positive vibes going through Saturday.

Just did my last PT (71) and scored my highest score ever and I'm seriously so happy. So glad I ended on a high note so I don't go into Saturday feeling discouraged. Ahhhh I hope I perform this well this weekend. Best of luck for finishing up strong!!

Good luck to everyone on Saturday. Hope everybody gets that score that they want / need.

Finished up with the last of my studying today by taking 77 again...pushed my real score of 166 up to 173. It was the first time I had seen the test since I actually took it so I have hope. If I could just hit 169+ on Saturday, I in all actuality might cry.

Also I've calculated the chance of another difficult game 3 in LG purely through speculative(?) methods, and it turns out to be 1000%

[texasreznikoff]

good luck on saturday everyone!!! remember to stay calm and don't sign your admission ticket until they tell you to do so

You and me both.

Positive vibes to everyone, let's go crush this damn thing.

In my PTs I went 173 - 171 - 167 - 168 - 164 - 165. The 173 and I think maybe the 171 involved breaks between sections. I really think focus and endurance are the intangibles that determine where my score falls each time...and I could nail it under the right conditions. We'll see how it goes! In my situation the June would be my first retake and I'm fine with that.

[Alive97]

I'm curious did other people do PTs on consecutive days? Is that is what's recommended or maybe in depends on you? I was studying on a compressed schedule and I started PTs last saturday.

The first time, i did all of mine back to back. Ended up feeling burnt out and didn't really learn from each PT.

This time I spread them out to be once a week on Saturday mornings, then I took a few extra in the last few days to finish up. I wouldn't cram too much here in the end so you don't get burnt out. You'll want a fresh head

Best wishes for tomorrow!!!!

[lurker816]

Nothing like 3 rejections in 2 days to get ya motivated for a retake, lol (also very glad that I signed up/got my top two choices to hold my app...)

Best of luck everyone!

[Rigo]

Abbey, I wasn't nervous until I read your post! Best of luck, though!!

[tedofsandimas]

Good luck all!

I have to go to class right after it's over See you all in the waiter's thread afterwards.

Wake up, do some pushups to get the blood flowing, then coffee, get to the test center early and do like 1 game and 3-4 LR questions to warm up.

The main thing I'm worried about is how to balance getting enough coffee without having to pee constantly. In December I thought I planned it out perfectly but I had to go like 5 minutes into section 1 and was stuck for the next 100 minutes until the break.

[Shib26]

By the way I love all these "good luck on the LSAT!" e-mails I'm getting from a bunch of random schools I have no intention of applying to. I'm like, thanks guys, I needed a reminder every 30 minutes today that I'm taking the LSAT tomorrow to really ratchet up the anxiety.

THIS! Literally same. That's what I'm nervous about. I have an espresso machine & make my own lattes...usually use 2-3 shots of espresso before PTs but the need to pee literally ruins my concentration. That's why I'm waking up extra early tomorrow so I can get my coffee in earlier lol
