What do you guys recommend for a test day warm up?
I was thinking something like 1 logic game, 1 reading passage and 10 Lr questions and doing them 45 min before the test starts.

Thoughts on that? Should I do questions I'm familiar with to get my confidence up? And should I be doing warm ups before my practice tests?

That sounds reasonable, though I probably would do a warmup a few hours prior.

Easy and medium-level questions are probably best since the last thing you wanna do is crush your confidence.

A warmup is almost like a second experimental section, so you'd be building some endurance along the way as well.

I do the exact same thing, except I just read a few RC passages and don't do any questions

I don't think there's a right answer... but you could also not do warm up questions. I did a bit of yoga and ate a good breakfast.

The biggest thing I think that helped was I had a friend talk to me in the morning. Not about anything specific, but just getting my mind going by chatting while also benefitting from having a friendly face to help me keep calm.

Maybe try a few options for warm ups over the course of taking practice tests, that way you can find out the best option for you come test day.

Don't go too hard for your warm-up!

I think for my LSATs, I did 8 LR Questions, 1 LG game, and just read 1 passage of RC in the waiting room an hour before the exam. I was the only one in the room doing any warm-ups, though so maybe I wasn't doing it right haha

but the most important thing IMO is to use the bathroom before you go into the testing room. I forgot my first time taking it and paid heavy consequences.

This sounds pretty good, though personally I would go even lighter. I did more like 5 LR questions, and set up a game without doing the questions. I also read a passage and analyzed it, but didn't do the questions for that either. Don't warmup on any difficult material - use it to get your head in the game and boost your confidence.

I think I did something similar, but with less LR questions. I went through and did every third question on an LR section.

I did the exact same routine at least two times before the actual test - from warm-ups all the way down to what I had for breakfast. Not saying it's necessary, but I felt like it helped me.

Also I don't think doing questions your familiar with is a good idea - seems like it kind of defeats the purpose of the warm up. Obviously do them untimed though.
