Take test once (Nov) or twice (Nov and Oct)

Hi all,

Today is the final day to register for the November 2022 test. I am currently registered for the October test but am planning to move my test to November. I have been in a score plateau recently and am confident I can elevate my score the few extra points it needs if I have another month to study. However, I am trying to decide whether it would be to my benefit to keep my October test scheduled and also register for the November test rather than only taking the November test. At this point, the financial cost would be the same to move my October test or to register for a new test entirely. So the question is--do I take the test in a couple weeks, despite knowing that I'm not quite where I want to be and will take it again the following month? Or would it be better to wait until November and take it once, hopefully with more confidence and better grasp of those few question types I'm still struggling with?

Would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks!

How to recapture basic instincts

Hi all,

When I started prepping a month ago, I was scoring quite highly, not far off where I wanted to be. After a month of intense study--reading the PowerScore books, using resources here, and doing the Blind Review method--I'm finding that while I know more about the patterns in LSAT questions, my basic instincts regarding the rightness and wrongness of individual answer choices seem to be dulled. I tend now to overthink my choices--quickly dismissing ones that feel intuitive because they seem too obvious. But, my intuition was all I had when I was taking tests the first few times (and scoring much better), Now I'm in a slump and don't feel the same intuition I had before. Has anyone had this problem? Will it improve with time? I'm shooting for the October LSAT, or November if I need.

Thanks
