@jeffersonjustina496.on.me Woop woooooop!!
I just ordered my watch. I'm excited about getting it. I got R2 the 4x8.5 counting up, smiley at the end. :-) I think it will really help. Plus, it was one of the styles on special.
I also bought my watch from 35minutes (I did the 4x8.5 with 3 red at the end). I used it every day several times a day for nearly 8 months. No problems. I loved it. Worked like a champ on test day too. For those of you who are nervous about the resetting aspect between sections, I had no trouble there either. After each practice section I would reset it so I was quite proficient come test day. Also, because the watch was segmented into 8 minute sections, I got a feel for my rhythm in the different sections and usually ended up with spare time as a result which let me reset without pressure.
DO NOT WAIT to buy a watch for your test. You need to use a watch or your zen inner clock technique on every PT you take before test day to get used to it.
Thank you!
@jeffersonjustina496 You customize meaning you select the watch face. My favorite is D I think (the one with 4 blocks and a final 5 min block minutes 30-35).
@2543.hopkins I couldn't find where you customize them :(
It's quite minimalist! And there's a smiley face instead of a 0 :)
That is perfect and I love how it doesn't shine or have bling bling haha
Yeah, my watch is sitting right in front of me and I can't hear a thing ... Held it directly up to my ear and only then can you even hear the mechanism at all.
AWESOME!
Zero ticking? AWESOME!!!!! Order placed ha :D
Ordered. Thanks for the recommendation, @2543.hopkins!
@jgoodwin765 ZERO ticking. @clineginger24 Super easy (and I'm between manicures at the moment—even easier with a full set). Love it to bits. 100% recommend. Plus the girl who makes them sends cute goodies that involve LSAT puppies :)
Looks great! How easy is it to stop and reset? I want something incredibly easy to grasp so as not to waste time between sections.
@2543.hopkins I haven't bought my watch yet, does your watch make a "ticking " sound? that ticking sound drives me crazy .
@jeffersonjustina496 I like that the watch from 35minutes.com has customizable watch faces. For instance, I got the one that has colored blocks of <8 minutes each with a 5 minute "red zone" from minutes 30-35 (I think it's type D). It has really helped me to get in the habit of finishing each game/passage/quarter of the LR section with time to spare to check answers, double check for bubbling errors, etc. The watch you linked looks great, but I definitely prefer something that more corresponds to how I actually need to manage my time as opposed to the sort of "average" approach in watches that lack a "warning period indicator." Plus I think mine was cheaper ;)
Here is another watch - $35.00

Has anyone used this one?
@2543.hopkins haha so it's not just me lol
I used to have an old proctor application that every time "5 minutes remaining" was called, everyone else in the 'test' would mumble and one kid would yell out "Awww damn it!" Here's to hoping I don't become that person on test day... can't make any promises though.
I always jump when @joegotbored149 gently/firmly gives the 5 minute warning. Sometimes my response is quite dramatic.
@jeffersonjustina496.on.me me too! All the others scared me when they came on to tell me about the 5 mins left...
I use the 7Sage proctor. Right now I have it set to "Gayle" she sounds almost exactly like the proctor the first time I took the LSAT. Not sure if that's a good thing though. I need to adjust to using a watch.
@sdiaz2030876 Couldn't agree more—I'm glad I got my watch early on because it's very different to have to set/monitor an actual watch versus looking at the app.
You also don't want to get too comfortable with the 7sage app as a timer (great proctor tho) as you won't be looking at it in test day. The sooner you get your proper watch the better
Now that it's proper Pre-Summer in Texas (mid 70's–80's an humid) the pool at my complex is the happenin' place. I'm counting on the influx of chatter and splashing to add a new level of distraction to my at-home testing environment. I've used the 7sage app to add distractions/white noise for a while now, but there's nothing like day-drunk shenanigans to challenge mental focus! I'll report back once I've done a few in this now-rowdy environment.
(And for those of you in the cold north ... well ... we have no state income tax, either. Just some things to consider #lifechoices )
