I recently took PT 59.
I've been scoring in the low to mid-160s, but this time it dropped to 156. I suppose a 4ish point drop isn't that big of a deal, but let me explain why I'm panicking (and not just because the test is less than 30 days away)
On Sec 2 (LR), I got 6 answers wrong. Not my best, but I suppose it's not terrible either.
However, on Sec 3 (LR), I got 10 answers wrong -- #15 through #25.
Has this happened to anyone, getting this many consecutive answers wrong? If so, what do you think happened here?
I know usually questions get harder by the end of each section, but I didn't perform like this on Section 2. Maybe I was tired especially hitting Section 3 (but usually this doesn't happen to me). Maybe it was just a bad day and it's not indicative of my other PTs. But maybe not. I want to know if any of you have gotten this many consecutive answers wrong? Could you shed some light on what you think caused it and how you improved (both test-taking strategy and reviewing your answers)?
Thanks!
Hello everyone,
As we know, the June 2016 scores were released. This was my second time taking it and my score DROPPED to an embarrassingly low figure.
I was scoring mid 160s on my practice tests, which is higher than my first LSAT score, so I thought I had made some progress. The highest I've ever scored was a 170 on a PT, but I've never been able to score that again, even on the same test. Normally I score perfectly on LG even on timed PTs, but LG was very difficult for me on this June LSAT. I ran out of time to even start reading my last RC passage, although RC is my weakest spot. And as for LR, I always think I understand it, but I must be making the same mistakes.
I've already started thinking whether law isn't for me. But before I give up my law aspirations completely, I will be trying one last time.
If anyone could point to any retake study schedules, please post. I was using the lawschooli and 7sage study schedules but I was wondering if there were specifically any retake schedules? Or for anyone who has taken the LSAT 2-3 times, pointers to give so I know how and on what to focus my time?
Thank you and congrats to everyone who is happy with their score!!! You did it! :)
Thank you @emma486 !!!
