When should I start writing my personal statements/addendums/etc.?

I'm planning on taking the July and September LSAT (depending on how I do in July). I want to try and apply as early as possible, however, studying for the LSAT is taking up all of my free time currently and I know that I am in no mental-condition right now to be writing well in regards to any personal statements, etc. How did y'all do it? I just want to make sure that I am weighing the opportunity costs of my time management in the most effective and efficient way possible. Thank you!

I think you know all the facts—that you should apply as early as you can, but that you should also prioritize the LSAT—so I'll just point you to this sample timeline in case it helps: https://7sage.com/admissions/lesson/admissions-timeline/
Now! I worked with @"David.Busis" beginning around this time, maybe a little later. It took a ton of pressure off bc I knew I had so much time to craft the essay I wanted.
