Self-study
Hello everyone,
I plan on taking the LSAT in April and I am really trying to get a 174-6. I have been studying for about 3 months but have recently doubled my study time per day considering the exam is in 2 months. My RC seems to be a bit worse than my LR but that depends on the section and is gradually getting better. For the exam I am planning on allocating 3-4 wrong for the RC section and 0-2 wrong for the LR. I tend to score -2 to -4 (-1/-0 on BR) on LR and have only once got a -1. How do I constantly bring this down to a -1 or -0? I have been doing a lot of sections in order to prefect understanding under timed pressure not totally sure if this has helped/will help. Thank!!!!

You mentioned that you score -1/-0 on BR for LR, which means if you have enough time, you would get most to all LR correctly. One way, you can get more time to do questions that you struggle is to get faster at the first 10 question to bank time for later. You can set up drill for 10 questions at easy level at about 1 minutes or less per question. For medium level question, you can set up the drill for 1 minutes 15 second to practice.
For RC, do you know what kind of questions, or what kind of passage topic that you struggle with? You should take note on the questions you get wrong, why you get that wrong. You can get the book PowerScore LSAT Reading Comprehension Bible, by David M. Killoran and Jon M. Denning, to see if the strategy in the book will help you. The used version in Amazon is less than $10 or get a new one so you can have clean RC passages by PowerScore (not the actual LSAT PT) to practice.
PT is nonrenewable resources because once you use it all, so you should save about 5 untouched PT for few weeks before your test date.
