I'd thought it would be great if we got a retakers thread started for this upcoming June Test. What are some things you are planning to do differently? Study materials, schedules, etc.
I underperformed by a lot from my PT average so June it is...
EDIT: I would like to use this thread for June prep so we don't crowd up all the entries. :P

EYOOOOOOOO checking in to this thread. SOLIDARITY GUYS WE CAN DO THIS!!!!

:P
@licknee10505 I will be drilling RC from the Cambridge RC packet that uses PT 1-38.
Hi guys, I am retaking in June too. Definitely hitting LR way more seriously this time. I was working a full time job, a part time job, and school full time last go around. This time its W.S.L. Work (1job).Sleep.LSAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! who's with me?!?! LOL.
I just want to let out a loud groan. Big deal this time is that I have found the 7Sage course much better than the Princeton Review course that I wasted so much money on. We will see if the rubber meets the road now. I probably needed the foundation of the PR course to understand 7Sage as well as I have so far. Oh well, just thought I would groan.
I feel like I bombed the Feb RC section so my goal is get a -3 on RC in June! Who's with me??
haha yeah. @kendragedeon108 and I talked about this a couple days ago. :P
Personally, I've been such a procrastinator. I've barely picked up a book to study for the June LSAT. Law school is my dream but working 40 hrs and traveling to/from work takes so much out of it. I hope I still have time to study since June is fast approaching. I think I'm also scared of taking the exam again because I've flunked before and I almost gave up taking the exam again (Dec 2013). Any advice? Can I study for the June exam?
@licknee10505 that's the plan. 7Sage here on out.
@kendragedeon108 burnout is something that I've thought about, something that I'll probably have to think about a bit more. I'm uncompromising in that
I will re-take it. My concern was that my score was 11 points below my PT average 161.
@christianadesrosiers9 Put Powerscore down lol
But I've been studying since Jan. 1st ... This 30-40 hours per week is not the business!
Spent the last week and half slowly going through Cambridge Simple Ordering packet.
My results:
Difficulty 1: 73/76
Difficulty 2: 39/40
Difficulty 3: 22/23
Not bad for taking a month off from the LSAT completely. Going to start grouping tomorrow.
Here is the next 12 weeks !!!
@181 I would say get the starter and if you need more problem sets to drill you can always upgrade or purchase the Cambridge practice sets.
@181 nobody can say that for sure... for some people yes... for others... no... depends totally on the individual... the one thing for sure is that ANY 7sage pack will give you a solid education in the ways of the test... but is the starter enough to give you 15 points for you or max out your potential... who knows... some people never make a 15 point jump...some jump 30 points... depends totally on your situation and where you are... I'd sign up and take it as it goes... upgrade if you need to.
@markushageylikman398 start out with LG.. It makes the process easier.
@laestelle2009241 we all have to learn from our mistakes lol I realized that I cannot study at home. I must take myself out of my room and to the library if I'm going to be productive.
@mpits001889 yes, there is :)
last time i worked a 12 hour day, 6 days a week and had been studying for a year so no surprise that i was just flat out tired when i took the LSAT!
this time i cut hours at my job to free up some of my time to study. Will be going through 7sage class again, threw in Blueprint LG book, Manhattan LR Book and reading old reading comp's from past PT's to help with RC. bought some bundles from cambridge too!
this time i will actually take JY's advice to drill and review! last time i would do a problem, get it wrong, look up the right answer and move on.
and no more studying laying down in bed lol
@hrjones44251 yes, skype study group tmrw =]
@hrjones44251 if feb was a normal disclosed test date, then they would release the most recent test as "PT 75". But unfortunately it's not so the next PT that LSAC will release will be this upcoming June test. Nothing beforehand if that's what you're wondering.
@licknee10505 im down with that! let's form a study group. does anyone have skype and/or live in nyc?
What are you doing to improve RC?
*Sorry didn't read the thread name lol
You guys can always prepare for the June LSAT :)
