Hi!

I've been scoring pretty close to what my goal is for my last 3 practice tests, but dropped about 8 points on the latest practice test I did today. I've been reading up on past posts that explain the role burnout can play in these kind of things. I'm inclined to think that's what happening here, but I'm worried because I'm scheduled to take the September LSAT (i.e. this Saturday). I was hoping to study for one or two more hours today and then take an entire day off tomorrow but definitely wondering if that's enough off time recuperate in time for Saturday. Overall, I was feeling pretty confident about the test on Saturday, but now this has me a little worried. Any thoughts? Advice?

Appreciate any guidance you might have!

Hi Aviz,

I'd ignore it and move forward confidently. This is more likely a Casino Effect than burnout, by the way. That happens, so don't let it affect your mindset!

Thanks!
