Hey all!

I know the topic of retaking PTs and their value has been discussed many times, but I just wanted to get a little more specific advice.

Here is my situation. I scored 167 on the June LSAT and I plan to retake it in October.

Before the June test I used up all the PTs and now I have a problem with a lack of fresh material for studying.

Starting from July I have retaken eighth full PTs (from the 60s and 70s) with an average score of 177 (Section performance is: LG: -0.1, LR: -1.4, RC: – 4). My BR scores are 179-180.

I realize that these scores are inflated, and they do not reflect my real performance.

So, I wanted to get advice from those of you who have studied only with retakes. How did you gauge your improvement from PT to PT? What were your study methods? How did you address your weaknesses exposed in your retakes? What outside materials/unusual exercises did you use in your studies?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
