LSAT Test Day - how to prepare

In case you don't have the time to watch that right now, I’m going to give you 5 of the best ways to prepare for Test Day. (If you want the full list of 10, click here.)

In true listicle form....


5 recommendations for the week leading up to the test:

1. Visit your LSAT test center.

The best way to get rid of pre-test jitters is to see where you'll be taking the LSAT.


2. Decide what you'll wear.
This isn't Project Runway - I'm talking about comfort. Wear a couple of layers, including your lucky t-shirt or sweatshirt. It doesn't matter what time of year it is. The room you're in might be hot or cold. Hoodies aren't permitted, though. When I took the LSAT, security wouldn't let me bring mine in. I was forced to stash it in a nearby park because test centers don't have a place to check banned items.


3. Decide what you'll bring.
Fill a see-through plastic bag with your admission ticket, #2 pencils, energy bars, bananas, a bottle of water, photo ID, a logic game (#9 explains why), and an analog watch. Make sure you bring a watch because it's possible that the room won't have a clock. Consider bringing a magazine or something to read on your way to the test center. See the Law School Admissions Council's day of test rules since the rules are updated frequently. Security does not allow you to bring a cell phone, so plan how you'll manage.


4. Relax the day before your exam.
If you studied for a decent period of time, one more day won't make a big difference. It's good to take a break so you don't burn out. Remember - there's a world beyond the LSAT!


5. Get to bed early the night before and set multiple alarms.
You want to be well-rested for the exam. Make sure you don't drink anything with caffeine after 3PM.


There's a LOT to think about in the final weeks before the exam. And most students don't realize the strategies they need to be using until it's too late.

In order to avoid a massive score drop, you need to be ready for anything.

That's why my LSAT courses provide anxiety-reduction techniques and strategies to simulate even the worst test centers.

But that's not all - they also review the most important rules and strategies you need to be aware of before walking in.

I share what top-performing students do in the lead-up to Test Day to ensure success while others - even smart, talented students - get stuck and don’t know why. 


In this course, I show you:
  • the 3 biggest mistakes students make when taking timed practice tests
  • the most common test center problems (and how to avoid them)
  • how to manage and overcome LSAT test anxiety
  • how to simulate Test Day conditions and predict your score
  • how to avoid an unexpected “Test Day Score Drop”

I’m going to show you the system I use to prepare my students for Test Day that approaches it from every angle. If you want to increase your LSAT score and reliably perform at that level in real-world conditions, I’m going to show you some of the most effective and powerful LSAT Mindset techniques I've developed and refined over the last 12+ years. 


  • you’ve never taken the LSAT before and are worried about what Test Day will look like
  • you’ve taken the LSAT, but it didn’t go well, and you want to improve on your retake
  • you feel like you won’t be able to translate your understanding at home into “real-world” conditions
  • you’re on the fence as to whether or not you should take it because you have major test-taking anxiety
  • anxiety starts kicking in at the first section, and even if you manage to calm down, you still can’t finish in time because you had to keep rereading

Join now and set yourself up for LSAT Test Day Success.


Very truly yours,
LSAT Steve
