So I just took my first PT after 1 1/2 years of hiatus and was quickly reminded of a problem I've always had with this test...
As I'm taking it, I always feel a strong headache in the back of my head. I'm sure it's because of the position my head is constantly at (looking downwards to the test). Maybe that position does not allow proper blood flow to the back of my head? Not quite sure...
My question is (I assume many of you have experienced the same thing): What do you do to fight, control, or prevent this annoying headache you get when taking the LSAT?
Thanks so much in advance!!!

What do you recommend?
jk but that is interesting, don't think Ive heard of something like this before. Are you a big reader at all/does the same feeling occur if you were to sit down and read a book?
If it's still there then I would follow the advice of @brna0714 and get an eye exam (preferably one where they dilate your eyes) to see if there are any issues there. As I wrote in another thread I recently found out I have astigmatism and need glasses and now having an understanding of that is pointing out to me when my eyes are straining. If I didn't get it fixed I would definitely end up with worsening health effects.
Next time I take the test I'll have my lenses for sure and let you know what happens!

During the break I usually take one extra strength tablet just to ease the pain. It usually goes away 10-20 minutes after I take a tablet.
Better posture and not letting my neck stray off too low has helped.
Sometimes I stretch during my breaks, but generally havent found that trying to be intentional about posture helps much
