Hi guys, I've been stuck in the 150s for the past month and I plan to take the LSAT again in November (I took the one in October; I'm not sure how it went). Any advice on how I should practice/study this upcoming month to reach at least a 160? My blind reviews also land me in the 160s and the feedback I get on 7Sage is that my underlying skills are in the 160+ level already. Just want to be able to actually get into the 160s on PTs and timed sections.

You've got this!!
Honestly, I would say that blind review gap is a good sign. It means you already know the material and you just need to get better at using what you know when the clock is ticking. I woud say there is no need to relearn everything from scratch.
For the next month, I’d just focus on doing one timed section at a time instead of burning yourself out on full practice tests. Whenever you’re not sure about a question, flag it, and do a blind review before you check your answers. When you miss something, try to figure out why: was it a concept gap, a misread, second-guessing, or just rushing? If you get it right in blind review but miss it timed, that’s your cue to get quicker and more confident with those types. Drill those patterns instead of just doing random questions.
I’d aim for one full practice test a week, and review it as thoroughly as you take it. While you’re doing sections, practice letting go of questions that are eating up your time; don’t let one tough one cost you a bunch of easier points. In your last week, start winding down and focus on sleep and keeping your routine steady. Hitting 160 by November isn’t guaranteed, but your blind review scores show you’ve got the skills.
Thank you I'll try your strategy out! Just now I got -4 on my BR whereas my first go landed me at a -10. A lot of the mistakes came down to rushing/not properly reading. Hopefully this is a resolvable issue in 4 weeks!
