Joniri left wisdom for posterity… (◕︵◕)

Posted after first LSAT (April 2025): Here’s what I’ve learned so far…

• I find it helps to read the question before the stimulus in the LR sections of this test, so you know what you’re looking for and save time.
• On the other hand, I like to read the full RC texts before looking at questions in this section. This helps me take in the full story without strong bias or already thinking of answers in the back of my mind.
• Bring a slab of chocolate as a pick-me-up for the break! It always makes me feel better and gives me a boost to face the second half of this daunting challenge.
• You can do this!!!
  Update #1: second test (August 2025) felt absolutely awful, not going to lie. Hoping I didn’t drastically under-perform my first official exam, but definitely scored a LOT lower than my practice tests leading up to the actual August 2025 LSAT. Had a massive migraine during the exam and everything felt fuzzy. See you all next month, I guess…
  Update #2: Have faith in yourselves! I was finally able to check my August score and it turns out it was one point HIGHER than my first LSAT. Now we wait to see how September 2025 went… Please remember to take it easy if you’re waiting on your score; the weeks after test day can be tough, but you will get there!
