Self-study
So, I just signed up for the June LSAT... I was hesitant to do so because I felt like I've been seeing little improvement, but I decided I could take the test again in September if push came to shove. For context, I had a 164 diagnostic (it was timed and under real test conditions), and that was at the beginning of March. I have been pretty stagnant for my scaled score, and my raw score has stayed consistent or gone up by around 5. I know I have the potential to do it because on some timed sections I've been able to consistently score -1/-2 but recently, with finals, I've been stressed and my scores have declined.
I'm hoping now that that craziness is gone and I have all of May to study, I will see a lot of improvement, but does anyone have any tips? Is this realistic? I seem to be falling for trap answers when I get down to 2 choices and running out of time at the end of my tests.

It's possible, thought not a guarantee. It will really depend on how quickly you pick things up. Make sure you are connecting each question you miss to an improvement or broad reason you missed it. When you get down to two and pick the wrong one, why did that happen? What did you do wrong to make you think that answer was correct?
Hey! I am new to all this but based on what I've heard you should take the LSAT once you have you reach your dream score on practice tests. I am not saying that you can't, but you should take it once you don't feel nervous about it. I was planning on taking it in June also but because my scores are not good I am waiting until I achieve my dream score. Wishing you the best of luck!
