Acceptable Photo Fears

I uploaded a picture when I registered that I had, which I felt was mostly acceptable but had intentions on replacing it with a better, more suitable photo. By the time I took it and when to upload it, I had missed the deadline and now I'm freaking out that my original photo isn't as acceptable as I thought at first. I emailed LSAC support and they basically said it is up to the test center supervisor. I know that if I am denied entry to taking the test, I forfeit my registration and am ineligible for a refund. This is stressing me out on top of the regular already anxious about the test jitters I already have.

Does anyone have any advice? My plan currently is to just show up and look as much like that photo as I can (I am wearing my glasses but I usually wear my contacts so I will have my glasses on). I mean worst case scenario, I don't get in, I have to register for the next LSAT, etc. but I really just want to take this exam already and call it a day.

I signed up for the December test last week. That's when it really set in... I had planned on studying all summer long and taking it in September but things didn't go as planned and here I am. I've been loosely studying for maybe a month now but I figured I better sign up for December, even if I'm not 100% ready because that will push me to study and take this seriously. I'm sure I'll have to retake in February but at least then I hope the pressure will be a little less, having gone through it once already. I have been a part of 7Sage for a few months now but this is the first thread I've commented on... because it made me feel like a part of it all. We're all working for the same goal and it is so refreshing to have a community of people cheering you on and understanding of the stress this test can bring. I wish you all the best of luck. Just Keep Swimming!
