Time to Start Thinking About June LSAT Test Day Snacks
For those of you who are counting, the June LSAT is 12 days away. LSAT test day is near enough that you may have begun wondering what kind of snack you should bring. The most important thing about your LSAT test day food consumption is timing: the brain uses up to a fifth of your energy, so you should be sure to take in plenty of calories before the LSAT. This doesn’t mean, however, that you should eat a big lunch right before the test; a food coma doesn’t bode well for your performance on the first couple sections of the LSAT. Get in the habit of eating a big late breakfast or early lunch; this will give you fuel to get through the LSAT without bogging you down. After that, try some of these snack suggestions for LSAT test day.

Your Task in the Final Weeks of LSAT Prep: Stay Motivated
The June LSAT is less than two weeks away.
Done freaking out yet? No? OK, I can wait.
Good. Now that you’ve calmed down (it only took you 10 minutes of breathing into a paper bag – I can assure you that’s completely normal), let’s talk about the perfect storm of bad that’s probably hitting you right about now.
Most LSAT prep students hit two walls at the same time.
The first is the wall of panic. When the LSAT gets this close, almost every student feels like they’re in no way prepared for the exam, and there’s no way that they can possibly get to a comfortable place by the time LSAT test day rolls around on June 11.
