Motivation Anyone?

I wrote my first LSAT test today for the first time since my last write in October 2015. I've been studying 7Sage since the beginning of September 2016. Scored a 152 before blind review and a 159 after blind review. I write the real thing again December 3rd. Can anyone offer any words of encouragement because I feel like there just isn't enough time :(

Applying with two low scores + December write

Hey there!

I've written the test already twice and did not do well at all (146 and 150). I took it before reading up on anything and totally didn't take into account the "don't write if you're not ready" mantra. I didn't put much thought into the process and wrote my first time after only 6 weeks of studying. Nevertheless, I think I know the test pretty well and since I've started taking 7Sage and doing Blind Review, I already feel much more confident for my third and final write. I honestly feel that the more I keep up with 7Sage and LSAT Trainer and Blind Reviewing, I could actually jump up 8-10 points by December (very optimistic, I know). My concern is, I wonder if it will be to my disadvantage when I apply to schools this November with two poor LSAT scores and a pending December score. I'm worried schools will disregard my application right away before my third score comes in.

Thoughts?

But with respect to answer choice E, isn't the formerly used pesticide what contributed to the loss of fruits? So how could it be an alternative reason to why the loss of fruits declined if it actually was one of the reasons for why the loss of fruits was so great...

I totally understand why D is right and why C is wrong; however, I initially chose C because I was predicting the answer choice that was going to offer me another alternative as to why BT toxins are preferable to chemical insecticides...

Letters of Recommendation

I am having trouble trying to narrow down the person I should ask to write me a second letter of recommendation. I already have a professor who has taught me for three years. However, I have been volunteering at a homeless shelter/soup kitchen on a monthly basis for a year and the manager offered to write me a letter. Moreover, this summer I worked for the government (employment and social services) in an office and my supervisor had also offered to write me a letter (I've only known her for 4 months). Finally, I've worked at my father's law firm for four summers but I think asking his partner for a letter would look a little sketch seeing my last name on the letter. I can't decide who can possibly write me a stronger letter or who is the better choice?
