Plan is to take my real "high-scoring test" in August and this is like a mid-way test. I saw that my PT's were hitting 162's and 163's when my goal is really above 165 this Saturday. My score splits are really annoying, I might be working too hard but recently they've kind have gone down the drain. When I was working LR sections last week the worst I was seeing was -5/-6 and a decent amount of -2/-3's but today I hit a -9 and I've had a few -7/-8s recently. What is really annoying is that I did a -5 on RC today which is good for me, usually I am around -6/-7. A few days ago I hit a 164 with a -3 on LR and a -4 on LG and a -7 on RC, I had not worked on LG for probably 2 weeks at that point and it clearly reflected, I probably should have refreshed my mind before that test. My logic games are usually around -1/-2 but I have pretty much run out of sections so I have been reusing a lot of material. Can I have some advice for this weekend, and even some advice for getting that 172+ in August?

Update: Got a 165 on June, pretty good half way indicator for August I'd say!

Just -2ed a LR section the same day I -9ed one, doesn't make much sense to me!
I've had this happen to me too. What I equate it to really just the need for more practice. The real test will not care if you have gotten only -2 on PT's. I would recommend to keep on working, like I am myself, until you are truly getting consistent results at where you want to be. :smile:

I disagree with ""havinagrattim"'s suggestion. If you are aiming for 172+ and your current PT is around 165, it is prefect fine to take the exam, by fine, I mean it won't have a negative impact on your applications. In fact, I will argue you should, since experience taking real exam will help you better prepare for future ones.
Don't take the June LSAT. You shouldn't take it if you're not scoring where you want to be scoring
P.S been working at around 3-5 hours a day since the April Flex date. Only missed 2 days due to extensive air-travel.
