Hey everyone!
This is the timeline of my LSAT journey:
May 2024-began studying (poorly, didn't take it very seriously)
Aug 2024-official score 142
*Haven't touched the LSAT since*
Sept 2025-started studying again
Oct 2025-first PT 156
Ok so realistically, what are my chances of scoring a 165 in the Jan 2026 LSAT? I'm still struggling with some basic stuff like making sufficient/necessary mistakes, spending way too much time on questions, overthinking, etc. I'm not confident whatsoever and the 14 pt increase is the only thing keeping me going. I just want to know what my chances are, any advice is appreciated.
STOP THE PTS. The last thing you want is to fry ur brain less than a week before the real thing. Focus on drilling your weakest question types, review and study each wrong answer as long as possible, drain the life out of them. Take a rest day (NO LSAT OR LSAT THOUGHTS). Do the same with RC but pick 1-2 passages and focus on them for the day. If you're feeling lazy that's ok, it's the showing up that matters.
