I was averaging 3 points higher than what I actually scored, but I felt really uncomfortable with the March 2019 LG and I think that's what messed me up. Does anyone have any advice for retaking a third time/how to approach studying this time around? I'm signed up for the June test because I know I'm right where I want to be, I just didn't execute on test day.
Wondering if it’s worth taking in March since I know everyone recommends to score higher than your actual goal in PTs. I've scored at/above my goal only 2 times, most of the rest (minus the first few PTs when I was still learning everything) have been within 5 points of my goal. I’ve already taken it once so don’t want a similar score to look bad. I'm scoring in the 93-96 percentile range so not much room for error lol
Thanks for the replies everyone! I am definitely leaning towards taking it, especially because I feel like I'm sooo close to reaching my goal.

Hey! I would also suggest that you drill those weaker question types or figure out if it's just a timing problem. If you're getting the questions right during BR, then it may just be due to timing. You want to look and understand why exactly you're getting them wrong. I know many people suggest recording yourself to figure out what's exactly happening and where you may be losing time. Maybe try to record yourself and see if that is helpful. It may be worth it to speak to a tutor and see if someone is able to help you make a plan that fits best for you. If you can wait and are applying for next cycle, then I would just wait and take it in July. Plus, you could still retake in September if you're not happy with your score, see your score first and cancel it, and get a free retake at the LSAT again. It may even help you get better scholarships and offers from schools if you are applying next cycle. There's no need to rush :smile:
Thanks for the reply! Any reason you wouldn't take it in March given your advice? I could always just take it in July if I didn't do good enough this month, but would you recommend against that?
