Hey everyone!

This is the timeline of my LSAT journey:

May 2024-began studying (poorly, didn't take it very seriously)

Aug 2024-official score 142

*Haven't touched the LSAT since*

Sept 2025-started studying again

Oct 2025-first PT 156

Ok so realistically, what are my chances of scoring a 165 in the Jan 2026 LSAT? I'm still struggling with some basic stuff like making sufficient/necessary mistakes, spending way too much time on questions, overthinking, etc. I'm not confident whatsoever and the 14 pt increase is the only thing keeping me going. I just want to know what my chances are, any advice is appreciated.

    100%. Just keep practicing! All of the sudden, out of nowhere, it will just randomly become easy and simple. The more you practice, the more complexity melts away. I've heard many other people say the same thing. Also, a lot of it is confidence and positivity.

    To help with overthinking, I personally love drilling so I can focus on one topic at a time. That way, it's easier to identify question types/the exam's "algorithm" when taking sections or PTs. Makes everything feel much less overwhelming.

    Good luck! You got this, trust me!! :-)
