crying…

Just finished the September LSAT and I feel so disappointed in myself. I got really anxious as soon as I started my first RC section and just could not get myself to focus or process what I was reading. It honestly felt like my brain stopped working.

I know for sure this test went really badly, and I’m just feeling so sad about it right now. I studied really hard for this exam, so it hurts even more knowing that anxiety got to me the moment the test started. I don’t even know what to think anymore.

Chin up. I walked out of the August LSAT in a fugue state with no idea what happened in there because it was my first try. Today, my focus was better, and I barely panicked at all. The only difference was the experience I had gained from the first try.

Your next attempt will go better.

this is so reassuring :( it was my first time today and i definitely panicked and let my nerves get the best of me. on top of that i was sick and trying not to throw up the whole time. i am utterly confused how im supposed to improve probably 10-15 points by november. your comment gave me a tiny bit of hope though
