Nervous about the September LSAT this Saturday?
Of course you are. You're about to take an important test. It's not the most important test though. That one you will be taking in December.
Just kidding. This is likely the last LSAT you'll ever take.
I'm only trying to remind you that for something this important, there are second chances. That's not true for a lot of other important things in life, so that's something to feel good about.
For most of you, you already know what score you'll get. Take your last three recent properly administered LSAT PrepTests (e.g., 70, 71, 72) and average your score. You'll get plus or minus 3 points of that average.
There is nothing separating you from that score except the mere passing of a few day's time.
You are as prepared as you can be. You have already seen everything those crafty LSAT writers will throw at you and you've amply demonstrated your ability to respond with craftiness of your own.
Saturday will not be a new day and the September 2014 LSAT will not be a new LSAT. It will only be "LSAT PrepTest 73" which will be just like PT 72 and PT 71 and PT 70 and so on.
For Saturday, remember only this: keep moving.
You will encounter a few insanely difficult curve breaker questions. Every LSAT has them. Every student who has ever taken the LSAT before you has encountered them. You will encounter them (again) on Saturday. I am telling you this now, so you will be prepared. Skip those difficult questions. Maintain your rhythm.
Keep moving.
You got this.
