I listen to music for motivation before and after studying but not during. I find it distracting regardless on the genre. But I have been trying to do my PTs in a library and with the proctor app with distractions turned up.
I am getting dropped off so I won't have my phone, which is why I was hoping to know when to be picked up. How strict are they about phones? Will they let me put my turned off phone up by the proctor or something?
I'm relieved it's over but I'm pretty sure I scored poorly. I had a proctor standing over my desk the entire test and I am not exaggerating. I am not trying to use it as an excuse but DAMN!!! IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY??????
* iOS App - The proctor pauses when it is interrupted by a phone call, alarm, Siri, etc, and you can press "Continue" to continue where you left off after you finish handling the interruption.
Yes, also if you download the 7Sage app you can use the proctor when you're taking a PT and you can adjust it so that you have background and/or distraction noise.
Does anyone want to do the first one next weekend? I'm thinking we just bring our own test (depending on where we are in our studying) and take it together. We can proctor ourselves.
You also don't want to get too comfortable with the 7sage app as a timer (great proctor tho) as you won't be looking at it in test day. The sooner you get your proper watch the better
I use the 7Sage proctor. Right now I have it set to "Gayle" she sounds almost exactly like the proctor the first time I took the LSAT. Not sure if that's a good thing though. I need to adjust to using a watch.
I would like to add that you should start using your analog watch to keep track of time instead of the little e-clock on the app. The app should be used only for the directions, 5 minute warning, and distractions.
