Self-study
I just took another PT after my benchmark. Between the times, I have only finished the foundations section of the course and have done minimal drilling. I studied my wrong answers for my benchmark exam too before taking this exam. I saw a ZERO score raise after taking this 2nd PT. Is this common or is this a sign that I have been studying wrong?
Would love to know if anyone else has had a similar experience or if this is common. Any tips or suggestions would really help.

Don't be discouraged! Foundations is like a necessary condition -- you have to learn it, but it's not going to give you a score boost by itself. I would recommend going through the rest of the curriculum before taking another PT (at least the entire LR section, but preferably RC as well). Drilling and practicing after the curriculum is how you're going to make the majority of your improvement. It may be counter productive to take PTs or do a ton of drilling before you're done the whole curriculum, since you want to make sure you actually learn the techniques first before putting them to action.
Hope this helps, and happy studying!
If it helps, my score actually got worse....so there's that. Best to you in your LSAT journey!
