Hey everyone,

Like many others, I took the July exam without much preparation (just because, hey, free retake). I got a 154.

I was scoring 152 consistently prior to writing -- I feel like I lucked out on the exam? Or maybe its because I would not grade my "guesses"/did not give myself the point even though I got it right. I am currently scoring 155ish (and doing the same). This is after 3 months.

I have been studying HARD since the beginning of june. My BR score is ~165 (but it is taking me FOREVER -- I am still correcting the PT I took monday, and im sitting in the library ~10 hours a day). My strength is LG, weakness is RC.

I am intending to write in October & November.

I intend to work very hard the next few months. My biggest worry is that I am never going to improve and do WORSE in october, and this is really what is preventing me from cancelling (since I already "mastered" LG)

I dont think a 154 will get me in anywhere in Canada. U of T is my dream school. And McGill (a top choice) averages LSAT scores.

What course of action would you take if you were me?

    Thank you for your advice

    You are right, I can improve on LG, it is just not my main focus area for the time being. I will still be working on it though.

    10 hours a day is likely too much. You may see better gains doing five intense hours. If you are not continuously getting -0 on LG then you can definitely improve this score just from gains there alone. If you are going to study with some proper guidance, I recommend you get a couple of tutoring hours to have a professional guide you to make sure you are using your time most effectively, then you should cancel and put up a better score in Oct or Nov.

    If it’s not where you want to be, then cancel. Some AdComms are picky about multiple/low scores. It’s dumb.
