I recommend reading a broad range of subjects on a regular basis to help prepare for the RC and LR sections. When you are doing tough RC passages and questions (especially natural science for many LSAT students), it helps to have experience with these subjects so you aren't intimidated by the subject matter.
A trip may provide a welcome break to recharge you before the test. I've noticed that I often perform better on practice tests shortly after I've taken a vacation. Also, how long will you be able to readjust from the time difference?
Have you done the formal logic lessons? A conditional relationship (e.g. X-->Y) can be phrased in many different ways (e.g. If X then Y, All X are Y, Not X unless Y, etc.)
For some SA questions, the correct choice is often a conditional statement, but may be phrased differently from what you expect. It helps to be able to identify the different ways to phrase conditional statements and to know when a statement is logically equivalent to your predicted answer. Also, the correct answer may be the contrapositive of what you are looking for.
I sometimes have a problem opening the questions as silent videos in the mobile app. The video will show as loading, but it won't open. I have noticed, though, that when I open the printable version of the questions and then go to the video, the video will open.
Here are some things to think about:
-How much could you raise your GPA in one semester? Even if you get all A's for one extra semester, how much higher would your new GPA be?
-What would law schools think if you took an extra semester to complete your degree? While students have many reasons for taking extra time to graduate, a law school might want to know why you spent an extra semester.
I've noticed issues with the videos loading slowly through the mobile app
@.Y.Ping Thanks for the updates! Your edits answer my questions.
To clarify, if someone is interested in submitting videos for test prep, do the guidelines mean that you should submit only one video per test (i.e. only one video for the SAT, one for ACT, etc. Does "subject" mean the same thing as "test" in this context)?
Are there guidelines or requirements for the content of the videos, i.e. should the videos involve explanation of sample questions or could the video address a broader topic (e.g. mathematical concepts, how to approach a type of question or section, etc.)?
I used the Economist's GMAT prep and recommend it. The entire course is adaptive, so it is tailored to your strengths and weaknesses.
Here are some links listing very difficult games:

Manhattan has about 40 free games: https://www.manhattanprep.com/lsat/studentcenter/logic-games/. These are slightly harder than most LSAT games
There's also a book called "Logic Games for Wannabe Lawyers": https://www.amazon.com/Logic-Games-Wannabe-Lawyers-Zegarelli/dp/1454912022. These tend to be easier than LSAT games.
Nothing can replace real games, but these are another resource
The GMAT and GRE provide you with either a writing pad or scratch paper. I imagine the LSAT would do the same if it becomes computerized.
I highly recommend using a crock pot too. Basically, you toss all the ingredients in the pot, turn it on and let it cook for a few hours.
I cook a large meal on Sundays and have leftovers throughout the week. You could cook several large meals at once and freeze leftovers for later.
When I log in, my dashboard shows up. Thanks @!
I use Firefox and have also had issues.
I noticed an issue with logging in. I enter my username and password to the login boxes, but the public home page appears, instead of my dashboard. However, If I add /dashboard to the URL (after entering my username and password), I am able to get to the dashboard.
Also, when I am logged in and click on the "7Sage lsat prep" link to return to the dashboard, I get redirected to the public home page.

I agree with @.
The Economist articles use a very similar style to the passages on the LSAT
I studied with The Economist GMAT program, which was very helpful:

I think the LSAT used to have math questions
Hi @. The Staedtler pencils write very clearly and have good erasers that erase cleanly. They are easy to sharpen to a very fine point, and the tips are strong and don't break easily.
I like Staetdler Norica HB#2 graphite latex free
Some schools even accept the June LSAT for admission for fall of the same year, i.e. if you took the June 2015 LSAT, some will accept that score for Fall 2015 enrollment
JY wouldn't get a 180. He would get a 181
