Day off

Am I the only one that feels guilty whenever I take a day or 2 off during the week?

I feel as if I could be getting so much done but instead I'm not. lol

    @kbk2785537 remember that the lsat doesn't test your vocabulary. So yes, it is possible for any ESL person to do well on the LSAT. You just have to focus and dedicate time to learning the structure/skills of the LSAT.

    @2543.hopkins this is my final semester. Whether I do extremely well or average my GPA rise/fall will be marginal, and will not really affect my application whatsoever. So, the workload feels trivial.

    Guys, I am ESL student. Its very hard for me to study for lsat. I really liked the program. And I think I can do well. I can see people having same issues and talk about them. So, I was wondering is anybody here same ESL student as I? Do you have any suggestions for me? I would love to hear them. Thank you:)

    I definitely give myself the guilt trip. For multiple reasons, I took almost 3 weeks off from the LSAT. Today is my first day back to doing lessons, feels so good.

    It’s all about balance and creating a schedule that works for you. My study schedule gives me 10-12 hours of content a week; I devote 2-3 hours a day to my 7 Sages prep. On a good week, I’ll have Saturday and Sunday off to rest, work on other material review the week’s material.

    @mpits001889 you, unlike many of us in the forum, are still in a position to improve your undergrad GPA ... So I wouldn't complain too loudly ...

    I feel the same way when school/work gets in the way of me studying for my LSAT. All the assignments I need to complete for school seem so trivial to me. I've written enough essays in my undergrad. If I'm assigned more essays, they feel like the biggest waste of time when I could be studying for the LSAT.

    @2543.hopkins Nice analogy on lifting, I was thinking the same thing. Over training, "burn out". Same thing

    @nielsinha488 Yeah well it was my first 15 months of lifting. lol. Went from 1 plate to 4 plates so I realized those noob gains.

    I combat my 'day off' guilt by doing the absolute minimum. I'll maybe do one small quiz or watch a few video lessons totaling 10-15 minutes. Those 10-15 min. are pretty negligible but help me with LSAT separation anxiety. They do not; however, prevent me from consuming entire packs of licorice as happened this afternoon... #sorrynotsorry

    that's awesome @2543 a 270 pound increase is HUGE... I think I'll get that done.... It probably occurred when I decided to do dumbbell deadlifts instead of the regular barbell kind... and obviously misjudged the weight that I could do... didn't feel it then though I immediately know after the 3rd rep in my 2nd set that something was wrong... so I left that and continued with my other lifts... and then lo and behold the next morning. I couldn't get outta bed without screaming in pain... couldn't bend over for days on end and needed to support my self even to get up off couches and chairs... all of that is finally over... just a bit of soreness in my left lower... probs will get that checked though like you said.

    @nielsinha488 You might want to get that checked out if it's still hurting after a month. I love deadlifting though. In about 15 months I added 270 pounds to my 1RM. lol
