Hi! I usually don't post on these forums, but when this started happening to me I SCOURED reddit looking for people with similar experiences. After studying for months, I randomly started performing worse than I ever had before—even worse than my diagnostic! After talking to some other LSAT-studying friends, I realized that this happens to everyone (it's just that no one really talks about it). I had been studying for at least 30 minutes a day for months, so I forced myself to take a few days off before August. I kept scoring lower than normal for maybe one or two days after, but I pushed through and eventually got back on course. Have faith in yourself, and trust that what you have learned will stick. This is just a stumbling block! I ended up scoring around my average PT on the August test.
