I applied the previous cycle but I wasn’t happy with the results, and decided to study and retake the LSAT and earn a higher score. My question is am I able to reuse the same letters of recommendation that I had used last year at the same schools I had been rejected from?

This one might be the most ridiculous question I have encountered so far. I personally picked D off the assumption that an actor in a play would have at least read the source material of the play they are in. I also felt that it was a reasonable assumption that a spectator or "fan" of Hamlet could be particularly interested in a character or speech in the play and that could explain why the speech was very accurate but the rest of the play is put together rather haphazardly. For the correct answer to rely on outside knowledge of the reality of how expensive and exclusive owning books in the 17th century is seems like a huge stretch.
I feel that the theory is extremely overrated and makes the test seem more complicated than it is. The best advice I ever got was to calm down and slow down. The majority of questions can be solved by careful reading and understanding the passage. And I would say it’s fine to take the test in June if it’s your first attempt. Save up and retake it again later on down the road (once you’re ready).
