Greetings everyone. I am very lost on what my best approach would be and would appreciate some advice please. I began studying around May using the LSAT trainer by Mike Kim and finished the book along with one practice test however I ran out of time on every section and scored poorly despite having a good grasp on how to approach most questions. The schools I am planning to apply to would prefer that I write my first LSAT before the November deadline and therefore I plan to write the October LSAT and if needed, a second one in January. I am currently working through the 7sage core curriculum. For the next two months up until October I plan to dedicate all my time to the LSAT. I am able to dedicate 7-8 hours everyday (around 49+ hours a week to the LSAT) however I do not know what the best approach is to make the most of these 2 months. Before I do practice tests I know it is recommended I finish the CC however due to my previous studying I was wondering if it would be smart to begin practicing them soon. I also heard that drilling is good and was told it may be a good idea to practice timed sections and drills daily such as LR or RC before I move on to practice tests. IF I were to drill daily, would it be smarter to use older LSATs to not waste newer ones for actual practice tests? With 2 months remaining and the deadline approaching for booking the October LSAT I am extremely worried and would appreciate any advise and guidance towards actionable steps to take to do my best come October or worst case January.

Thank you for your advice @ . Currently I have just been focusing on the core curriculum and before I just finished summer school exams I had finished the LSAT trainer. I noticed in the LSAT trainer I typically got everything correct untimed both RC and LR and even did pretty well on one RC section timed. The first practice test I did before i started 7sage is what shocked me I got 147 but its because for all four sections I ran out of time and had to guess at least 7-10 questions per section. I plan to do daily drills and 1-2 practice tests a week on top of the core curriculum. How does that sound? I will be dedicating all of my days to this and will be studying for 7-8 hours every day of the week if need be.
