Hi Ray!
Welcome to the community! My biggest piece of advice is to focus on really understanding the LSAT before you start stressing about your score. Take some time to get familiar with the structure of the test, the different question types, and the timing. The more comfortable you are with how the LSAT works, the less overwhelming it will feel on test day.
I also recommend figuring out early on which parts of the test give you the most trouble. Try to notice which question types or sections feel hardest, and then use targeted drills to work on those areas. Focused practice on your weak spots is usually way more helpful than just doing tons of random questions.
Another thing that really helped me was reviewing my mistakes carefully. I found that I improved the most when I took the time to figure out exactly why I missed a question and thought about how I could avoid making that mistake again.
Finally, try to be patient with yourself. Progress on the LSAT is almost never a straight line, and it's totally normal to hit plateaus sometimes. Just keep practicing consistently and thoughtfully, and you'll see improvement over time.
I hope this helps as you get started! If you ever want more support or have questions, feel free to reach out. Welcome again to 7Sage, and best of luck with your studies!
