In the last few days before the LSAT, do a full-length timed exam or two, along with excruciatingly detailed review.
If your schedule doesn't permit all of this, taking only one exam is fine. The one constant would be rest the day before.
Real review takes time. Most people don't spend enough time reviewing. If you got 10 questions wrong, and another 15 you weren't 100% sure of but still got right, that could take at least 3-4 hours if done properly - a full day of study.
Here's a final week study schedule:
Day 1 - Wrap up reviewing questions you haven't reviewed yet, or take the day off.
Day 2 - Take a full exam, or a few timed practice sections, and review them today and tomorrow.
Day 2 - Take a full exam, or a few timed practice sections, and review them today and tomorrow.
Day 3 - Rest day (along with a little review from the previous day).
Day 4 - Take a full exam and review (or review it tomorrow)
Day 5 - Full exam and/or review previous day's full-length exam.
Day 6 - Relax. No studying. Massage, hot bath, movies, nature, meditation, yoga.
Day 7 - Rock Test Day.
Take it easy. Don't do too much. You don't want to risk burnout.
At this point you pretty much know it or you don't. It's about pulling it all together and being consistent.
You could also mix in some review of weak areas here and there, especially over the next few days, but the focus should be on pacing and endurance at this point.
Relaxation:
- meditate
- hot bath
- massage
- walk in nature (weather permitting, it's freezing here in NYC at the moment)
- TV
- leisure reading
