Has anyone found a timer apps for iPhone that are specifically targeted at LSAT test taking? I am just looking for something simple.
I realize on test day that I’ll need to use an analog watch, and that it’s better to practice with that [insert other top-law-schools orthodoxy] but want something to use on my phone when I don’t have my watch. A (admittedly cursory) search doesn’t turn up much.
Happy practicing!
I am not sure of any iPhone apps, but when I do PTs, I have an analog watch and my laptop facing away with an online proctor such as this one: http://www.alpha-score.com/resources/lsat-proctor/
I think if you keep it turned away, it simulates the conditions pretty well, since it instructs you when to begin and when you have 5 minutes remaining.
Solid advice ^ . Online proctors are the way to go OP.
I used a cooking timer (turned away) so I could acclimate to the time without necessarily hearing warnings and the like. I would suggest that you start practicing with the watch you will use on test day as your only visible timer.
Also, if you’re highly neurotic like I am, perhaps you should consider an analog watch tailored to the LSAT. I recently purchased a 180watch.
Why can’t you just set a normal watch to 11:25 at the start of each section?
Makes me sad for humanity.
12:00 is better than 11:25 
Wow it is $49…
I have a nice Nautica chronograph watch that I will use during LSAT!

I just bought a cheap analog watch from wal-mart with a huge face and tick marks, and just reset it to 12 each section. It’s relatively easy and you get used to it after practicing.
Nah, at 11:25 it counts down to 12:00. Clearly better 
Objection!! 
Setting a watch to 12:00 is superior as you can simply read minutes and know how long it passed!
Haha. I tried setting to 11:25, but then I would always have to make sure the second hand was right and that I didn’t accidentally shift the hands when pushing the crown back in. I don’t know, it probably isn’t necessary, but I’m on my third retake, so I’m gonna not taking any chances. I also like to know exactly how many seconds I have left, etc. Yeah, yeah… I’m neurotic. 
I’d be pretty giddy if they would just let us use digital watches. 
Where are you going to be practicing when you don’t have your watch? Are you going to stop, drop, and practice at certain, random points in certain, random places?
Hey, with 180 watch, is it easy to make the second hand 60 second? It is automatic to reset all minute and second like chronograph or it requires manual reset? I am rooting for your 3rd retake!
Also, LOL @ the fact that there may be LSAT-specific clock apps for the iPhone. There probably is one, somewhere. Some aspie had to have made it.
I just ordered it, but I believe everything resets with just one press of the crown. The second hand damn well better reset automatically, or else it’d be kind of pointless. Haha. and thanks for the encouragement! I’ve poked numerous holes (more like craters) in my study plan and have since revised it. Let’s go June!
Are you taking June as well?
Yeah~count me in
When are you expected to get this watch? Would you tell me your experience with this watch when you can actually prep with this one?
I think if you can reset BOTH Second and Minute hand at the same time with pressing simply one button, it is worth 49 bucks as long as it is not broken easily Yes, I am neurotic too 
Hope all June Test Takers the best!
According to the website, the second and minute hand should reset with one press of a button. Well, two–one to stop the watch and one to reset.
I figured if I have this, it will be much like having a digital watch, since I know exactly where I am (within a second) in the 35 minutes. In December, I accidentally slid my finger when I pressed the crown in, so my watch was off the official 35 minutes by a minute. :-\

I should be getting it within the week or next week by the latest. I’ll let you know how it works!
That mistake was pretty bad… 
I understand your pain. Appreciate your feedback in advance~!
Just got the watch! So it’s pretty nifty, but it’s pretty obviously cheaply made, so you’re going to have to be careful with it during prep time. It works pretty fantastically! There’s one button that starts/stops the watch and another to reset it. The second hand on the side ticks every two seconds, so you’ll know exactly how many seconds you have left in the 35 minutes (+/- 1 second).
Although a watch like this is far from necessary, I feel like–if you’re neurotic like I am–it will give you a sort of peace of mind knowing that you’ll know exactly where you are in the 35 minutes. Just one less thing to be concerned about!
Let me know if you have any additional questions!
