Some people have told me not to register until I am consistently PTing at my goal score, but what is considered consistent? I really want to register for April (otherwise I will not be able to sit until August due to immovable scheduling conflicts), but I'm not at my goal score yet and I don't want to waste an attempt.
I feel like waiting until August for my first (and hopefully only) attempt feels so last minute since I want to apply for law school in the 2026-2027 cycle. Am I creating an unnecessary time constraint? Any advice is helpful!
For context - my goal is to get as close to a 180 as possible, but realistically I would be happy with 173+
My last PT was a 168 (BR 174) in jan, and since then I've been scoring -1 to -4 on all practice sections, RC and LR.

Just my personal opinion, but if your goal is a 173+, "consistently" scoring would mean on a bad day you're scoring like 170/171 and on a good day you're scoring 174/175.
Like my goal score is 171/172. So until my worst PTs are consistently, over and over, 169/170 and my best are 174/175, I'm not gonna feel confident enough to take the test again.
