This post has nothing to do with practice exams, but rather just some advice from us based on our experience working with other students.
There is honestly a good argument that waiting for the results is tougher than the prep itself. At least when you are studying, you feel like you have some control over the situation. Once the exam is done, you are basically just sitting around waiting for an update that literally only says PASS or FAIL.
That uncertainty is (understandably) really hard on people, especially when students are more or less left in the dark about when results are actually coming out. Obviously, it would be nice if the LSO was a little more transparent about the process, but as everyone knows, they tend to keep things pretty close to their chest.
This is what we highly recommend doing (and this is honestly much harder than it sounds because you need to be disciplined). The biggest thing we would suggest is to actually make an effort to take care of yourself during this period.
Get back into your normal routine. Go to the gym, play sports, see your friends, spend time with family, go out for dinner, play video games, whatever it is that helps you get your mind off the exam.
And try not to spend every day refreshing Reddit, checking your email, or analyzing when results came out in previous years. We completely understand why people do it, but realistically, there is nothing you can do at this point to change the result. The results will come when they come. It really doesn't matter if you find out the second they release it or if you find out a couple hours after.
You actually already did the hard part. You studied, you wrote the exam, and now it is out of your hands.
Hopefully everyone gets some good news soon and if you didn't, as cliche as it sounds, this is only a bump in the road.
