Greetings everyone,
I am reaching out to see if anyone can offer some advice/motivation. I have been studying for the LSAT for a little over a year. I’ve taken the exam twice, both times scoring less than my potential. I am a paralegal and my boss accomodated me last year and allowed time off to study. It looks like I will need to continue to prep for another try at the exam. I am feeling totally unmotivated and tired. However, I do not want to give up. I am not going to ask for more accomodations at work since I feel they’ve done enough. I also would like to look for a new job but haven’t done so because of the law school process. I’m feeling quite stressed and unsure of how to tackle test prep moving forward. Can anyone offer some tips? :(
@ Thank you for taking the time to comment! Unfortunately, I am unable to take time off from work at this time. I had every intention of using my lunch breaks and 2 hours of study after work for 3 days a week and at least 5 hours on Saturdays and Sundays, but oftentimes it doesn’t go as I plan. Getting my head back in the game has been a challenge! I’ll be 32 years old soon and although I know there is no rush to go to law school, I still feel a rush because of my age.
@ I definitely burned out. I found the exam exciting at first. I enjoyed it alot! Until I became nauseated by it and anxiety kicked in! That’s how much work I did! I used any spare time I had to review my wrong answers and drill.
