So I haven't gotten my score, but I'm quite confident that I didn't do as well as I had hoped. I've registered for the Dec test already and I guess I'm currently taking the week off (3 days left) before I get back into it.

Good idea?

    Yes, certainly take at least a week off in order to refresh yourself. You'll do much better when you come back.

    I hope you killed the September test though, this way you don't have to retake :)

    I only took one legit day off. However, I'm also in school and working so I knew there would be days in the upcoming weeks (and this week) that I would not be able to study LSAT at all with midterms and stuff. I think it's unique to each individual. With more experience at work and in school, I've realized just how important sleep and feeling refreshed is, or at least like you can retain what you're studying lol. You can push yourself to the max but if you are five seconds away from falling asleep or ripping your hair out, you're not being productive. Whatever time frame makes you feel like you're mentally ready to start again, go with that.

    I'm honestly taking a little bit more than a week off. Sometimes you have to mentally shut down and just take some time away from it. I'm thinking a week, maybe do light studying in the next week, mostly making a timeline for law school apps, then back to the grind.

    I bought Mario + Rabbids for my Switch. I've been playing that on my commute instead of studying. I wont jump back into the LSAT until the first day of October. I need the time off just to mentally recuperate. You should rest as well!!

    I'm retaking in December and plan to restart studying on the 26th or 27th. I'm in school full-time so I don't have tons of time, but I have a relatively good sense of what I need to work on, and I think the time off will be good. I'm also using this short break to work on my PS!
