Of you guys that just took the July LSAT but are already registered/plan to register for September, any advice? How are you guys staying motivated while waiting for your July score?

    Took March 2019 and just took July 2019, so similarish boat. Take at least a week, I took two last time, to just chill. Let your brain relax. In regards to how to stay motivated, keep visualizing why you are doing this in the first place. If you truly believe you can improve your score between now and then, think about what that does for your overall end goal and what that will bring you.

    I took a few days after the June exam and jumped right back in to heavy studying. I just know myself and relaxing knowing I’m not making any progress would drive me crazy. Of course, lots of people might prefer to take a longer break. You just need to do what you know is right for yourself.
    As far as staying motivated, I keep the end result in mind. That is, the reason I’m doing all of this is to change careers, go to a great school, and become a great attorney. It doesn’t hurt that I find the challenge of the LSAT kind of fun.
