LSAT · How do you even study for the LSAT?

Yes, be specific with your drills. Look at your analytics, it'll tell you which tags to focus on. Spend an entire session doing only drills with that tag, and understanding why you are missing them. For example do 25 questions of Conditional Reasoning for LR. Do 5 as a warmup, read through 7sage's analysis for those 5 and see what you can learn. Then do 10 more trying to apply those lessons. Once again review, and then do another 10. Make sure you're really understanding the logic behind that question type before doing different tags.

LSAT · Time management & gaps between PTs and BR

Overcoming timer anxiety is a skill. This is great because with enough practice, you can overcome it. On the downside that means you have to practice it a fair bit. What I found helped me was playing blitz chess. This may sound completely irrelevant to testing, but if you play chess and really force yourself to think through each move without worrying about the clock, you will get better. I lost on time a lot, and played bad chess over and over, but then it got to a point where I really could focus on the move without worrying about the clock, and crucially without forgetting about the clock. (Im not even good at chess, but still was able to build the time management skill). Find something like chess (online poker can work) which requires analysis under time pressure, and spend half an hour a day playing it.
