I've noticed that it seems most students start a PT better and then finish worse. This is big reason why there is a such an emphasis on building up your endurance while taking practice tests.

I however have the opposite problem. The first and second sections are almost always worse (and more mentally taxing) than the later sections. I attribute this to my brain just not being fully awake and I've realized that I need a considerable warm-up in order to preform well.

Anyone else have this problem?

    @23372 I'd recommend trying out some different warm-up routines until you find one that works for you! For me personally, I find doing 1 RC passage, 1 (harder) LG, and 10 LR questions untimed works the best, as it allows me to re familiarize with the unique language of the LSAT.

    I have this same issue! On my last couple of PTs, my 1st LR section is hot garbage while my 2nd section is remarkably better. I'm guessing that warm-ups before a PT can't hurt.
