@ Points for quoting blood meridian lol. So many parallels between the book’s gruesomeness and applying to law school!

You have to consider how this will increase your risk for LSAT burnout. If every waking moment of your time is spent thinking about/doing LSAT stuff, you're going to burnout and need to take a substantial amount of time off to recover (at least that was my experience)

I sorta took a gym schedule approach to my studying. 3 on 1 off or 2 on 1 off. Sometimes my "off" days were spent watching videos of JY doing problems but me not doing them - but this was rare.

Just piggybacking off of this - burnout is VERY REAL. It's not worth it. I worked 90 days straight once, one full time job, one part time job, while having a girlfriend and working out. But when the burnout hit, I literally had to resign from my second job. I just couldn't bring myself to work, and my brain was in a complete fog. I actually feel like it made it hard to focus on anything else in my life for a while. Any type of work seemed way more difficult. Something just breaks in your brain when burnout strikes, and it definitely won't be good for your overall LSAT score and your mental health for that matter. Just my 2 cents.

I agree that you need to take a progressive overload approach to studying, similar to working out, as it will prevent burnout and it will allow your mind to adjust to the high stress levels provoked by the difficult problem solving the LSAT will require of you.

Congratulations, and thank you for the insight!
