Hi all!

I'm preparing to take the September LSAT and am looking for some advice on the best tips & tricks to get myself ready. I've heard some not-so-great things about the environment at the in-person testing centers, so I was wondering if anyone had any advice about how to best set myself up for success. For instance, when I'm studying, should I be in complete silence (which would be ideal) or allow distractions (other people talking, not necessarily TikTok brain rot breaks!)?

Also, any tips about staying focused and increasing stamina would be greatly appreciated -- especially ones that could be recreated on test day!

Thank you!!

    Have yet to take the test myself, so take it with a grain of salt. However, I do follow this method. What a Yale lawyer told me was that he rotated the settings at which he took his PTs. So one day he'd be at the library, another at a busy coffee shop, maybe at home, or a quieter coffee shop. His rationale was that you want to prepare yourself for any distractions that may arise on test day, and the best way to do that is to not overfit your body's responses to one setting but to ensure that it is accustomed to a diverse set of situations.
