Self-study
Hey all,
I am planning on taking the December LSAT and, with that date looming, I am really trying to break from the high/mid-160s and move into the 170s (and beyond!). I have been reading a bunch throughout these forums with regards to study schedules, but I haven't found anything that seems to be of much help to me.
So, without further ado, I was wondering what you all suggest as my plan of attack? I have already completed the CC and done every logic game from 1 - 10, in addition to some PTests. I figured that I should try and tackle about a practice test every other day, with an intense BR session in between each test. Should I use PTests 11 - 35 to drill each section (RC is my weakest, but I could use improvement on everything, not to mention that I still have a bunch of tests I still have yet to see)? Or should I just take those as full PTests in addition?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Thanks to everyone for the comments! Very helpful to hear different insights.
@4108 avg BR is about a 171. Trying to get it up to a 180 (aren't we all...). Because it's not perfect/not above a 175, this definitely suggests to me that I have a lot of review to do in between the tests.
@8262 yeah, I've been pretty partial to independent study, but I might look at getting a tutor soon if I still can't get out of the 160s. Before I do that, though, I'm going to try to do all I can by myself to move into the 170s (like doing a more thorough BR, for example).
I am thinking that the amended schedule will look something like this:
2 PTests a week, with 2 days (or 3, depending on what's needed) in between to review. I'll BR pretty hard after the test, and then the review periods would involve drilling the types of q I got wrong, going over old problems/tests, some logic game drilling (I want to keep this at tip top), and working on improving my RC a ton.
I'm not set on that schedule, but it seems like a good outline for now. Open to hearing any further thoughts or tips you guys have.
