Fool proofing LG

When people say to foolproof games 1-35, how are you doing this? A couple questions with this...

  • Do you have access to PT 1-35 through 7sage? If so, are you printing off the games or?
  • If you don't have access to all of them through 7sage, did you order a book?
  • I'm new to the concept of fool proofing, which I'm sure is surprising because it seems that everyone is doing it! So I'm jumping on the train. Just need to know the best way to begin doing this.

    @ This may be a silly question, but when you say fool proof games 1-35, you mean fool proof every game on PT 1-35, correct? I can see that you have the starter package too, so how did you get access to those tests? If I am completely off base, let me know lol.

    @ Just read your post and I want to make sure I understand what you're saying. You can apply to schools without submitting an LSAT score and check a box saying that you're anticipating a January 2019 score? I do not want to submit my first attempt and I am taking the January test. So should I start applying without score? If that's possible.

    How To Get Over Test Day Nerves

    I took the LSAT in September and I'm planning on taking it again in January. Prior to the September test, I was scoring well on my practice tests. Then on test day I freaked myself out and my nerves wrecked my score. I'm terrified this is going to happen again in January and I'd hate for something like that to ruin my chances again. I really need January to go well because I want to be admitted for the fall of 2019. If anyone has any tips to get over the test day jitters, please please please let me know what helps you. I think the timing aspect of the test, along with being like "oh sh**, I'm actually taking this right now," really got to me. I rushed through the questions because I was nervous I was running out of time and I was overthinking everything.

    Thanks for the advice! You didn't address this in your post and this could be a dumb question, but when people say 'drills', do they take problem sets of the same type of question and do them over and over? @

    Tips for 2nd Attempt

    I'm preparing for the November test, which will be my second attempt. Does anyone have any good study strategies that work for them in preparing to take the test again?

    @ Yes, I use a stopwatch, but go at a pace that is comfortable and not necessarily trying to meet that 35 minute time limit. I guess I shouldn't say I always make it at 35 minutes. Sometimes it's more like 37-38, but I'm generally pretty close. But I get really stressed once I use the 7sage proctor/timer. I need to start using the timer all of the time though to get used to the stress that comes with the time.

    Anxiety Because of Time Limit

    I’m having some trouble getting over the timing aspect of the LSAT. If I take an untimed practice section, I feel so much less pressure AND still finish within the 35 minutes. But the second I start timing myself, I start feeling really anxious and overthink the questions. Even though I know I’m capable of finishing within the allotted time, I still feel a lot of pressure when I time myself. Does anyone have any helpful tips to move past this?

    I'm in a similar boat. How are you planning on studying the next 6 weeks?

    I took the LSAT for the first time in September and didn't get the score I wanted, so I'm retaking in November. Does anyone have tips to help prepare for a 2nd attempt? Should I just study my weak areas and continue to take PTs? I want to make sure I am fully prepared the second time around. Let me know what you think!! :)

    I took the September LSAT and I am planning on taking it again in November. Aside from going through the September test and doing timed practice tests, what does everyone do to prepare after they've taken it once? Is the best thing to do just go over weak areas and practice those types of questions? Curious what everyone's strategies are going into the next one.

    Let me know!!! :)
