I’ve hit a difficult point in my LSAT studying when it comes to timing. I’m wondering if taking a full practice test untimed (even if I have to do it over multiple sittings) and then thoroughly reviewing it would be beneficial.
Has anyone tried this? If so, did it help improve your understanding before you went back to timed practice? Or would you recommend focusing on untimed sections instead?

Do you blind review the full practice tests? The way I BR is by essentially 'retaking' the exam the next day, slowly going through each question and essentially taking the whole exam untimed. That way I can see any clear distinctions between running out of time and content gaps! It also allows you to conserve full PTs, rather than burning through all of them.
I personally believe that PTs serve the purpose of building stamina and developing strategies, but they aren't very helpful when it comes to improving understanding. Slow, targeted drills and untimed sections (as well as timed sections) are what helped me the most, as well as intensive, step-by-step review and WAJ!
@haena thank you so much this was so helpful!
