😖 Frustrated
Got lower on my LSAT than expected and now i dont know what to do. Any advice?
Took the February LSAT and got a 155. I'm pretty disappointed by that. My diagnostic test in December was a 152, and I took 7 more practice tests, and each time I did better than the time before, with one exception. eventually i got a 160 and my highest was a 163, which was my second to last practice test before the LSAT. Then my last pt was the worst I ever did. I got a 151, worse than my diagnostic test!
It just feels bad that I "crashed" like that. Each time I started a pt, I was very scared to start it because I was afraid of doing worse on it than the ones before but then it became real. When I first started studying i told myself no pressure and that I would be happy with any score as long as it would get me into any law school, even without a scholarship. That's what I was suggested by a couple of lawyers. But once I started doing better, I started getting competitive and greedy and wanting to go to more prestigious schools and I was comparing myself to my tutor, who got a 180. I've never done particularly well in school. I also have adhd and was always a 60s, 70s, 80s student, but my tutor said he was like me and got a 180 and went to NYU.
I am registered to take the lsat again in April but now I'm more scared to study for this test than I was before because now the expectations are higher. Im also going crazy because I'm not working now and I'm all by myself and in my head like a hermit. Any tips for studying and not feeling so meh about myself?
I chose E because it seemed the most clear answer but i was tempted by C because even though it says E the other way around, i was thinking its saying the same thing; the same way i am older than you and you are younger than me are the same, why cant C also be correct because it is saying the same thing as E the other way around. Why would I assume what I think of other people is different from what others think of me?
