Just a reminder
You NEED a watch and it must be analogue.
I've done the whole 180 watch thing - It even broke on a PT.
Just keep it simple like JY recommends and get a sports watch with a rotating bezel. This one worked fantastically for me and is now on sale for 10 bucks (Cyber monday?)
A couple of key points:
- for every section, set the big hand to 12, so it's easier to see when you get to 35 min (you have time even when there's no break)
- Use the rotating bezel marker to place on 30 min, so you'll know when you have 5 min left. (proctors DO forget to tell you sometimes).
Even if you're broke, don't be penny wise and pound foolish - get a watch and practice with it before test day - don't plan borrow from a parent and forget or end up with a crummy watch because it's all they had.
Hope this helps!

The watch is definitely helpful and I wouldn't take the LSAT without one.
Cheap-ass me...I would take my pencil and scribble real hard on the watch face 30 min out from sec. start. The method worked time and time again during PTs. Then on test day 5-7 min into a section I'd remember "sh*t I didn't do it!" so I'd try to guess and make a mark after the fact. Just one more thing to throw me off. If I could do-over I would buy a watch with an outer ring to make marking easier.
I took so many PTs with my analog watch without resetting to 12 that I basically got good at timing myself as is.
Hahahahaha!

That looks like a children's watch and it's 60k???
I used the 180 watch and it worked perfectly. The toughest thing believe it or not is remembering to reset the watch immediately after sections. Sometimes you're so caught up rushing to finish a section that you forget to reset it.
but this watch is 53% off compared to your 41%

Nice. I got this watch a while back and found it frustrating trying to figure out where the 35 min mark was under timed conditions. Resetting it to 12 with each section. Brilliant...Now my eyes don't have to waste precious seconds trying to figure out how much time I have left.
