Self-study
I am just really nervous for the November LSAT. I have been studying a lot but I can never shake the nervous feeling.

Go ahead and be nervous. It's fine. You can write a great exam while being nervous. But also keep in mind: the stakes for this test are extraordinarily low, because it's predictable, requires only your ability to think during the exam (which you absolutely can do), and you can take it repeatedly. I'm older than you (66), so I have that benefit of knowing from experience that there are lots and lots and lots of routes to law school, and lots of time to get where you want to go. That's why I think you should just take a few long slow deep breaths before each section starts and enjoy this beautiful test. Because after all, it is freaking beautiful, and the truth is you are well on your way to writing a very good exam, whether it's on the November test or the one next spring. (I took it in September, will take it again in January -- and I was nervous too.)
me too, i think the stress is unavoidable. at least we care
@AlyssaMoreau Same boat as both of you. But we'll get out of this ok!!! I keep telling myself that the score I want is just to get closer to fulfilling a dream in one chapter of my life. But it's not the end goal! It helps a little bit I think.
