PT/LR advice please!

Hi, so I've recently started doing PTs (around 5) and I am scoring in the low 150s. My BR score has been increasing, with the most recent being 167. The problem I have when doing PTs is that I always run out of time for LR and end up not doing the last 5 or 6 questions (while skipping other questions). I end up getting around 10 wrong per LR section but when I BR, I miss around 3 per section. What can I do to bridge that gap? Should I drill individual LR sections and stop PTing? I went back to the curriculum and worked on my weaker areas like Flaw and weaken questions. Sometimes I have a really hard time understanding the wording of some answer choices, which take up time.

As for RC, it's my weakest section and I never get to the last passage during PTs.

My plan was to take the test in September..but at this point I am really unsure if I should cancel and write in December. My goal is 160+. I wanted to write the test in September so I could have a chance to retake in Dec if I needed to, but if I write in December, that would be the last score some law schools in Canada would accept.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Finished with the curriculum

Hey guys, so I completed the curriculum last week which took around three months. I am aiming to write the test in September 2016. I only wrote one practice test after finishing the curriculum and realized that my LR and RC need more improvement. Timing was also an issue since I could not get to all the LR questions and the last RC passage. Should I be doing PTs right away or go back to the curriculum and drill LR/RC? Also, I know that the schedule recommends doing PT36 to the most recent, but should I skip a few of the older ones so I will be able to complete the recent ones in time for September? Any feedback is appreciated! I just want to know what other 7sagers did after finishing the curriculum but weren't reaching the level of accuracy they wanted. Thank you!
