Im taking the Jan2021 LSAT and when i do preptests, my blind review score is constantly better than my actual score (usually 150s actual score and 170s BR). My last PT my actual score was 153 and my blind review score was 177. Anybody have any suggestions on how to improve my score under timed conditions?

Any advice would be appreciated. This is my first time taking the flex (3rd time taking the lsat overall) and I’ve basically been studying every day since June 2020, like studying has become my full time job for the past 6 months. Initially, I started at a score of 143 and, to my dismay, I’ve been PTing around 157/158 (using the flex option on 7Sage) but My blind review is always 174-177. I’m aiming for a 170+ score but constantly getting in the 150s has seriously hit my confidence. I want to apply for fall 2021, and I’m debating whether I should switch it to feb to give myself another month to improve or if I should just chill out these next few days and take it on Saturday
I would purchase the loophole if you haven't already and try to get through that before classes begin in the fall. the loophole really helped break down LR for me and i went from -11 to -5. Also drill drill drill. drilling questions is a good way to become more familiar with the questions as well as the thought processes that go into each question type
I was waitlisted at American and plan to attend a waitlist information session and sit in on a few classes. I was wondering should i notify my admissions counselor that i will be visiting? I don't want to be annoying. This would be my second visit (i visited last summer before applications). I was waitlisted in March and so far have sent 2 letters of continued interest (1 each month).
I would love to join a study group! :smile:
For RC, do you rush through the passage? I used to get -12 on RC but once i started focusing on the passages, it was easier for me to blaze through the questions. In my opinion, its more beneficial to spend an extra minute or two reading and understanding the passage than it is to focus on the questions
