I've been studying consistently for around 3 to 4 months now, primarily using the paid subscription to LawHub, and am just now starting to use 7Sage. When I have unlimited time taking shorter drills of around 12-14 questions, I am able to get 80-90%, if not all, questions correct. But if I do multiple drills in a row or take a full timed practice test, I find myself running out of stamina after only two sections or so.
Any tips on how to build the mental strength/stamina needed to stay focused and keep going with such a lengthy, draining test? I'm sure just biting the bullet and taking full practice tests more often would help, but I'm wondering if there are any other ways people have found to help train their brain for taking this kind of exam.

In my experience, the best way to specifically train stamina is simply volume. Just like with running long distances, the best way to not get tired with a set quantity is to practice at about 1.5-2x that quantity. If you're trying to run a 5 mile race, make sure that you occasionally run at least 10 miles in practice. If you're trying to take a 4-section test, make sure that you, at least occasionally, take 6-8 sections in a row. (Source: I took the LSAT just a few months after I took the MCAT, which is an 8 hour long test, and the LSAT felt like a breeze in comparison, stamina-wise. Now that I'm studying to retake the LSAT over a year later, I've been struggling with stamina as well because I haven't been practicing at the same level of pure volume like I was when I studied for the MCAT back then.)
