Hi! Im planning to take my next LSAT in October with the goal of scoring 160 or higher. Currently, I am sitting consistently in the 152-154 range. Given that my diagnostic was a 138, im very proud of my improvement so far, but I know I can do better. LR is my best section, sitting around 17-20 correct per section. RC is where I really struggle... -13/-14 haunts me daily. Last week I scored my first -9 on RC and almost broke an ankle from jumping for joy. Anyways... if you previously scored in the same range as me on RC and improved, please send me all your tips! Thanks in advance!

Congratulations on all of your hard work and improvement!! I did actually improve my RC with the methods from 7sage so I would recommend going through that again if you haven't already. It really helped me clearly define and remember where to look in passages if I needed to go back. I wish you luck and you can do this!!
I know this might not be super helpful but all I’ll say is just keep chipping away. With 7Sage you have all the resources in front of you to improve, so just make sure you use them. I’ve found some success from taking a weekly practice test (though you can burn through these quickly,) and through explaining why a question is wrong or right to myself on paper. Once you understand the rationale for an answer choice’s correctness (or lack thereof) you build confidence. Once you build confidence, then you’re able to hold it together during a test and not let your nerves get to you. That is why you do blind review too, because it shows you that you can figure out these questions, but the main issue is timing. I hope that helps!
