Self-study
Can someone please help me. I’ve been studying for 3-4 months and haven’t seen any improvement in my scores or progress. I’m about to give up and just eat the $250 I spent on registering for the test. I feel hopeless.

Hey! Always keep in mind that the LSAT is, by its nature, a difficult test, and everyone has their own journey with it. That being said, one recommendation I have, which helped me a lot when starting, is to imagine that you are arguing with someone. However, imagine all their arguments are in bad faith; they don't want to argue to grow; they want to argue to win in any way possible. Your job then is to catch them in a flaw, or maybe in an incorrect assumption. This helped me a lot just to start getting the sense of the answers I was looking for.
Other than that, ensure you memorize the question stems and general strategies for each one. This helps you focus on one strategy. Finally, and I can't emphasize this enough, when starting to learn, highlight your questions' argument or main conclusion. This will keep you focused on what you are arguing against.
Sorry if some of this doesn't make sense, and feel free to reach out. I can't say I am a top scorer by any means yet but I did push my score up by 20 ish points.
hope this helps!
Hello, I would kindly suggest that you watch all of the lessons again. Go to classes on the subjects that are difficult for you. Drill questions and if none of those suggestions work, find a tutor to help you.
