Hi,
I've been taking a few timed tests lately (after I received some good advice to do so) and have been consistently scoring 164 on all the exams. I took a timed practice test last night and scored a 165 after a few days of extensive blind review. I'm currently trying to take the upcoming LSAT exam (February '16) and my goal is to score at least a 170 (but would ideally like to score 173+). I would rather not push it off until June. I quit my job, moved home to study, and after a lot of distractions there I recently moved back to the city this week and have been putting in a lot of uninterrupted work towards the LSAT. I need to get a job again soon but also know that I have to make the difficult decision of prioritizing the LSAT.
From those who have some insights to share -- do you think that it is possible to hit a 170+ by the February exam date? If I'm scoring a consistent 164/165 on timed exams now? I have until the end of December to register for the February LSAT, so any information + advice you could give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

@2543.hopkins haha I love parks and rec that was a perfect gif choice. But yeah I agree. I should definitely make sure to not over do the studying so I don't burn out.
Might be too many PT's—you do not want to burn out :) Shoot for 3 a week as a maximum. You MUST take a full day off of LSAT, especially when you're going this hard. That's an order! :) And limit the number of hours a day you spend doing this stuff.
And never forget:
This is reassuring, thank you. My plan is to take a timed practice test every other day (I have all the exams) and blind review in between with the occasional rest days. Maybe do some content review with the strategy books I have on the weekends. Fingers crossed!

You're likely in the 165 plateau. You've got the 168/169 plateau ahead of you. Depending on how long you've been at the current score range, I'd estimate you are likely at least (!!) 6 weeks from 170's consistency. This is based solely on my own experience and what I hear from people on the boards/my students.
Keep on pushing. Keep PT'ing and BR'ing. Make your decision very close to Dec 31st. If you're not already in the very high 160's by then I'd say 170-173+ in Feb. is a very, very unlikely occurrence. If you have seen a few low 170's by Dec 31st then I'd say go for it, no question!
