Tutoring (maybe?)

I’m not sure if 1-1 tutoring is right for me but I’m definitely willing to try.

I’m finishing up my undergrad a bit early and taking a year off to study for the LSAT. I did a very small amount of lowkey studying in 2024 and 2025, then started to get more serious in late 2025 and 2026. My (untimed) diagnostic was a 152. I then, without any real studying, took another and got a 158 and then a 160, which motivated me to study more. However, since then, I have never gotten past a 163.

That being said, I have not dedicated enough time to it as I think it deserves. I could barely give it 30 mins of meaningful study every other day while in school. I started to get extremely discouraged. Since May/June I’ve been on a study break while working full time over summer. I start school again next week. However, it’s my last quarter and it should be relatively chill. I think I’m ready to study again. I really would like to apply next cycle, so I think that means I should start studying now, aiming to be DONE with the LSAT by next June. I’d like to speak with a tutor and see if this is realistic. Some recent data: my last (merged) test was a 161; a few of the most recent LR: sections 18/25, 21/26, 19/25, 17/26; a few of the most recent RC: 19/26, 15/27, 17/26, 20/26. For those I used the LSAT Demon method (aka only answer the questions you have time for, so for most of those, I answered either the amount I got right or a few questions more than that, so I range getting between 1 and 5 wrong for the amount that I answer).

I’m a first generation law student. I’m not too worried about money since the LSAT is so important.
