Thank you JY and the entire 7Sage team. I never had the patience to do a full BR, but everything went right for me on test day and I am thrilled to not be taking the August exam. My biggest takeaway is that, above all, the LSAT is a test of effort and focus. Every tool for success on this test is in the CC. Be persistent. Work on your internal dialogue (this is a big one). And remember you have the ability to beat your PT average on any given day. Also, try not to stress after the test. If you're like me, the last five minutes of any given section might be a blur even right after the fact. Rest knowing that, at least in my case, it can be a happy blur.

-Hello 7Sagers
In the past six weeks, I have finally bared down and committed to completing 5 hours of CC daily. It's safe to say I have caught the bug, insofar as I feel completely capable of nailing every LR question (LR is the only section of CC that I have completed). I have completed 2 practice tests since my diagnostic to affirm the fact that I am indeed making progress. 155 (diagnostic) --> 159 (PT36) --> 162 (PT37 today). These gains almost exclusively reflect my LR improvement. Before I take my next PT, I am looking for some advice on the order in which I should be taking them. In other words, how important is it to be taking PT's from more recent years? As an Ultimate member, I only have access to tests through the year 2014. Wishing you all the best in your endeavors.

Good work. Out of curiosity, how many months of study on what schedule? What were you scoring before taking the exam?
I took a 155 diagnostic in January and put off seriously studying until the start of May. I would say I averaged around 25 hours a week for 8 weeks, and then my schedule was largely devoted to PT's and section drilling (roughly 30 hours a week for the 2 weeks before). I was averaging high 160's/low 170's (hi173)
