I would say focus on your your problem areas of logical reasoning sections after getting comfortable with games. I wouldnt waste too much time trying to get better at RC because technique can only take you so far until you hit diminishing returns. Speaking from experience. GOOD LUCK!
Mid July I took my diagnostic (timed) and got a 141. Posted a 152 on the September test and now my average is up to 158 going into the test tomorrow. Contrary to what most people say I took the Sept. test before I was where I wanted to be but it was hugely beneficial for me. Got my anxiety way down about the whole thing. I have just honestly followed the advice on here to a T. Studied with Kaplan books for a month before 7 sage and it did NOTHING. I have found that following the post CC webinar advice has been super helpful in guiding me through that "what" and "how" of tackling this. From someone who hasn't taken a timed multiple choice exam in 7 years and just finished a degree in Fine Arts I had a long way to go (and still have some to go before I really hit my goal of 165) but if I can do it ANYONE can (3 oh and this is with working full time!(/p)
I don't have anything else going besides working part-time and they accept anybody with a score of 153 +. Of course I'd like to do better than that perhaps 158-160 especially for scholarship purposes. Wondering if I should just write the LSAT until I get the desired score and apply right on the day applications open for Fall 2020. Thoughts?
Hi! I think this question is different for everyone. My diagnostic in August was 149 (timed). I took a PT about 2 weeks ago and got a 156. I drilled my weak points like no tomorrow. Yesterday I took a final PT and got a 163. I'm taking the LSAT tomorrow. I was pretty dedicated these last few months to studying and putting the work in. I also work full-time and am enrolled in school full-time (in other words, yes I am psycho). What I'm trying to say is it's possible, just need to dedicate yourself. Best of luck!

What else do you have going on? And what score range will meet your admissions goals?
