The worst dreams of them all
LSAT Is Coming
Alum Member
The first few nights after sitting for the LSAT, I dreamed of having absolutely bombed the exam. But my dreams more recently have been even worse. These days I dream that I got a super high score (last night a 179) and then as I start telling my family, I say to myself..."or did I dream that score last night?" Then I realize I didn't actually get my score back yet and I wake up in a panic. Has this happened to anyone else?

@LSATiscoming i'm having all sorts of dreams and trying to keep my expectations in check... i've titled this chapter of my novel: learning to live with crippling anxiety.
I have an LSAT playlist on Spotify that kinda tracks each stage of LSAT with specific songs. Waiting for scores is "Waiting Around to Die" by Townes Van Zandt, lol. It's a long month.
I one time dreamed that I forgot it was LSAT day and I woke up panicking and checking my calendar frantically to make sure that LSAT wasn't that day! lol
all these lsat nightmares tho... this is like a mental therapy session forum haha
I'm still have to take the exam but my dreams keep getting more and more strange. I think my last one was thanks to @CinnamonTea haha. I had a dream that my pencil couldn't fill the bubbles in. I got really worked up and kept saying "13 A, 13 A, 13 A" as I tried to fill it in.
lol! That's definitely a nightmare!
I had a dream that I scored a 158, then later in my dream, I scored a 116, which of course is impossible. I can't wait until I know for sure.
Hahahahha! This is hilarious. I think we've all been there. Of course, yours are after having taken the test but it's all relative.
While I was starting to do new game types i.e. double layer sequencing or more often those crazy, most difficult of all time games, I used to dream about them. I still dream of aggressively tracking the conclusions and the premises in the argument for LR. So, it seems I don't really dream about scores just yet (I'm sitting in September) but I'm sure that's coming.
RC is currently haunting me. It's bad. I just keep thinking that the only thing that stands between me and the option of a 200k a year job in three years is RC....it's not literally like that...but kind of. You probably experienced the same during your prep.
I felt really good about the RC. I averaged -6 to -8 in practice, but I actually found the reading interesting this time... during practice I would do very well on a section I liked, and suck ass on the ones that were dry and I just got lost... another lucky point, my RC was my first section.
Woke up in the middle of the night last night. I dreamed that I got a 148 (oddly specific) and that my girlfriend, a medical/health student with no particular interest in the law and who definitely didn't take the LSAT, somehow managed to score much much higher than I did. I know it doesn't make any sense, but still... July 6th can't come fast enough.
A couple of nights ago, I had an incredibly bizarre dream. I opened the test booklet to section 1 LR and I couldn't read it. It was simple English but I couldn't comprehend it. I have had a couple of other dreams about the LSAT like waking up and thinking it was test day. I haven't even taken the actual test yet.
haha I had a dream i scores a 124 haha and they wrote a letter saying " you failed so miserably that we changed the scoring system.
most recent dream:
the proctor didn't call time at the end of a section. i kept working, but then the proctor started going over the questions and answers with everyone in the room.
me: "what are you doing? are you giving out the answers?!"
proctor: "are you still taking the test?"
me: "of course! you didn't call time yet! but also why are you giving away the answers?!"
proctor: "you are in big trouble. i'm going to cancel your score and you can never take the lsat again!"
me: "this is insane! what if i pick up all the trash in the room for you?"
then i just started picking up trash in the test room while the proctor continued to give out answers.
I have dreams were I scored a 171 and wake up to reality then other times where I scored a 148 or something. The test now feels like the easy part, I just want these results back so I can know what i'm doing moving forward
Almost every night I dream that the scores are out and then I actually wake up check my email and while it's updating I fall back to sleep and dream that the scores are out.. check phone>go back to sleep>dream scores out>..etc
I'm currently doing a SA intensive for a few weeks. The other night I woke up around 3 am, I was sleep walking and looking through my desk for the sufficient assumption. In my dream I was panicking because I couldn't find it. I remember thinking to myself that I knew it was in the middle drawer of my desk. It took me a good 30 seconds upon waking to realize that the SA is not a tangible item and that I needed to go back to bed. heh.
This made me laugh!
SAs aren't tangible??? I need to wake up
