Hi, yes, commenting as well, I went down by -4 from my average score. I am currently working on my wrong-answer journal & planning on doing a deep review.
@JoshNoa i also second this as well,it is so helpful sometimes to also work the question out loud while reviewing as well.
I totally understand. I was stuck in the mid-to-high 140s for six months. I just started scoring in the 150s about three weeks ago. I’d highly recommend The LOOPHOLE, it’s so important to understand an argument structure, translating arguments into your own words, and making inferences. I haven’t finished the book yet, I’m currently on Chapter 8 of 12, but it has already helped my LR score improve from 8/26 to 17+! And that’s without even finishing the section. I usually only complete about 17–19 questions per LR section. ALso, while reviewing BOTH LR & RC try to really question yourself about why the process & the AC is wrong. Then " reteach " yourself why the AC is right.
For RC, I’m still struggling myself, but a few tips that have helped me (even slightly) are: don’t take notes, actively read, make connections between paragraphs, and highlight the author’s attitude. I also try to find the main point of the passage before looking at the answer choices. Remember that most RC questions are essentially MSS, so be aware of strong language, look for textual evidence to support your answer choice, and if you’re in doubt, always look back at the passage.
Yes you can get accepted into schools with a low lsat score, I scored a 147 and have a 3.21 gpa. I have gotten accepted to 3 schools so far all with some sort of scholarship ( schools where I am below the median) . I'll say to literally put blood and tears into your personal statement, resume, & DO THE OPTIONAL ESSAYS AND ADDENDAS !!!
Remember with having a low LSAT score we have to prove that we are capable to excel in Law school and showcase we can do the work !
