Hey guys, I took my first LSAT yesterday and I feel like I genuinely flunked so bad. I've been scoring consistent 160s in PTs with my highest being 171, but my brain felt soo slow taking the real test and I know I didn't do so good. I worked really hard to manage my anxiety going into the test but I still just felt stressed and slow. I'm taking the LSAT again in Feb and I'm wondering what are some ways I can practice doing the test under stress? Maybe like try and convince myself each practice is the real thing? Have someone there yelling at me stressing me out? Idk but I need to be better otherwise I'm definitely flunking Feb too, let me know if you guys experienced this and if anything helped

The same thing happened to me; this almost sounds like I wrote it, lol. Been scoring high 160's consistently and felt like I was moving in slow motion on the test; even had to guess on a couple per section because of time. Hoping for the best for both of us.
It’s sounds like your burnt out and might need to relax. High 160s and 170s is good and may even get you scholarships. I would wait until your score returns you might be surprised and do really well. Maybe even better than you can imagine.
