feeling bummed + just signed up for january too! not really a tip but what i'm trying to do is give myself permission to sulk a little, but then get right back to planning and studying. if your lsat score was that different than what you usually score on practice tests, it could've been a case of nerves on the day of? in that situation, i think it's super possible to improve by january.
a late celebratory post that i bumped up my score by 9 points in a short amount of time! it caused one of the schools i had already been admitted to, to increase my scholarship offer by $10,000 per year--a very real reminder that every point counts, and the lsat holds way too much power.
i had been PT-ing an average of maybe 162/163 by the nov. lsat, my first time taking the lsat, but i was nervous + holding my bladder come test day. couldn't focus. jan lsat, i felt super calm and i got lucky with an especially easy reading comp section, which is my worst section.
just throwing this out in case it gives anyone hope of increasing their score! i'd offer tips but i don't feel that great at anything other than logic games. the advice there is simple: keep fool-proofing. it really took me from ~ oct. 2019 to nov. 2020 to get consistently good where i'd miss 3 on average. my first PT, i missed 13. be in it for the long haul!
amazing! congrats and thank you for sharing :smile:

does anyone know if you can wear a headband?
wore a headband during my test today! you can
agreed, it is weird! i just took the lsat for the first time yesterday. the routine of studying and working toward a clear goal was comforting in a way. but cheers indeed :)
congrats! :)
