Hey guys, when taking PT's, in order to simulate the conditions on the LSAT, I use the proctor and cut out each section from the 10 official LSAT books. I cut them so they're still attached, as if the real LSAT would be. They're like $20 on Amazon for 10 tests. Not a bad deal.

    I found my watch critical in February. I had considered not getting one, but I found myself under much more time pressure than in my practice test situations (even though I do practice tests with 33 minutes per section) simply because the test center was more distracting than I had expected. So the way I did it, which worked great and I will repeat in June, was to turn my watch back to 11:25 for every section. When the big hand is vertical, time's up. :)

    imo 180 watch works better

    Mine was tiny in the front, so unless you were front and center you werent keeping track too much, especially of that last precious minute. I found having a watch pretty beneficial as it allows you to keep track. Just knowing is one thing but being able to adapt and know if you should be moving quicker on the easier questions or taking my time to make sure I dont miss anything.

    @licknee10505 I would say it's somewhat important for keeping track of your pace. The required clock in the room may not be in front of you. In my testing room, it was behind me which would have wasted precious seconds if I were to turn around.

    How important is the analog watch?

    You could also rip out and then use an eraser! Just saying ... Not a fan of wasting $20!! Big pink erasers have enabled me to do many a retake ... Lil' bit of elbow grease goes a long way.

    You would be surprised how many people do not practice with your watch. At my testing center, over a third of people didn't even have a watch.

    I'm so glad someone else does this. I sometimes feel like a crazy person ripping sections from the LSAT PT set books.

    I would like to add that you should start using your analog watch to keep track of time instead of the little e-clock on the app. The app should be used only for the directions, 5 minute warning, and distractions.
