Self-study
Someone please tell me that I am not the only one that has a hard time staying focused while watching videos and learning the LSAT materials? some days its like i am motivated to study and then others and especially if i just took a practice test that week my brain can not stay engaged.
If anyone has any advice that would be great

I think its time and practice as others have said but also limiting your social media content consumption. After 2 months of limited app usage I have less im thinking about other than what is in front of me. It has also helped with my short term memory which was trash before and so frustrating to do RC.
I really stuggle with this with my ADHD. I'm looking to put together a study group to hold myself and other accountable. if you might be interested feel real to reach out anytime!
I use a 15 minute timer and study and take small breaks. The timer really helps. I don’t like taking ADD meds daily, can’t sleep well at night.
I have this same problem...I usually do better when listening to music but obviously that won't help for the real thing.
I honestly feel the same way, I use Flora to stop myself from using my phone and getting distracted by it. But tbh theres good weeks and bad weeks, it's all part of the process.
Try Adderall. Lol.
Just comes with practice and time. Used to feel like that. After training my brain and doing a bunch of PTs the feeling fades. Also nice to just have some exterior motivation (think about your career and what you're doing this all for!). I promise the exhaustion will fade
I would say try to give yourself appropriate breaks in between sections, or try doing some sections instead of full practice tests when studying to try to build stamina
same here!! ive been studying for a while and this is always been the case. its extremely hard to stay focused especially during reading comp. the logical reasoning i have gotten used to, since its shorter it isnt as hard to stay engaged. think of the lsat like a game, your mindset will help you focus a bit more if you stay interested in the content
