Hello all!
Lately I've reached much better results due to a massive change in my attitude! The Lsat should be your friend, not your nemesis!
Before every PT exam I follow a ritual to help be Zen! It beats being hyper caffeinated and high strung like a harp!
This is what I do:
1. Eating right!
I usually have a big meal before exams and it helps me stay focused and perform my best! Nothing heavy nor greasy! Eat yo veggies!!! Sometimes I even carbo load the night before and wake up early to do an exam! Hahaha
Also! Being hydrated really helps! Hydration affects short term memory (or so Wikipedia says!) but don't over do it or you won't be able stop running back and forth from the bathroom and your seat!
2. Stretches!
I hate how long we have to stay stationary! I'm not saying go run an iron man! But being strenched helps my back and neck.
I also like getting my heart rate up a bit to get hyped for the exam! Enthusiasm works!!
3. Comfy clothes, layers to remove/add in order to stay at a good temperature.
4. An arsenal of Samurai katana sharp pencils.
Each one made from a single tree I cut down in the woods, and hand crafted and sharpened by shark teeth and black rhino horns.
Just kidding! I get my 99cent store pencils and have like 6 ready do go! Yes, they are Spider-Man pencils! How did you know?
5. THEME SONG!
5 to 6 minutes before any exam I blast my latest favorite upbeat jam! Get your game face on! I try to use the same ones over and over again to have consistency. Past 7 exams it's always been Sweet Child O Mine. Do whatever moves your feet and makes you feel good!
6. Privacy
Locking the door, barricading the exists, airplane mode, remove the battery from that ticking ikea clock. Start that timer!!! Let's do this!!!!
[insert 3ish hours of hair pulling, hardwork and DOMINATION!]
POST Exam!
1. I always have an ice cream sandwich or a frosty beer orrrr both waiting for me in my fridge as a "that'll do pig, that'll do" moment after a good few hours of work!
2. GO OUTSIDE!! Walk that dog, ride that bike, climb that mountain! Give yourself 2-3 hours of recovery before you review and begin the whole process over again!
That's what I do!!!
I've increased my scores and it works for me! Hooray!
Wondering what rituatals any of you guys and gals find helpful? What's helps you be zen before an exam?
Do tell!
Thanks!

Learn to love the exam. Challenge yourself to do your best every time you do a timed practice test! Developing you skills under test like conditions is key! Aim for accuracy over speed first, and then move towards ouushing yourself to your max during a pt. you brain needs to be a high functioning and vicious machine.
