I really appreciate all of your feedback. I am going to take the diagnostic to see where I'm at and keep moving forward! Thank you! :smile:

Diagnostic test

This is probably a ridiculous question, but I'm going to ask it anyway. I started studying for the LSAT a few days ago and I've been postponing taking a diagnostic because I'm afraid I'll get discouraged if I get a really low score. Do you think I should take it regardless? I guess I'm just looking for reassurance that no matter what score I'll get on my diagnostic, I will still be able to get a good score through hard work. What improvement have you all made since your diagnostic?

I completely understand how you are feeling. My diagnostic was a 143 and I took that on June 01, 2018. I have been studying for about 2 months and my most recent practice test was a 156 on August 05, 2018. I plan to take the test in either November or January. The most important thing to remember is that you can only control your preparation. The score all depends on the skills and habits we form during our preparation. I try to tell myself when it gets hard that the best way to ensure success is to deserve it. You can do anything if you truly give it your all. I am aiming for a 165 at least so I have plenty of work ahead of me. Don't give up because this is a marathon. Even if no one has had an 18 point increase doesn't mean you won't be the first. Give it your all so you can look back and be proud of yourself.

Thank you so much! @ I have not been timing myself unless it is a practice test since I am still practicing how to do the games, but I will start to implement that to create that same pressure feeling.

@ I just seem to freeze up during the practice test because I can't figure out how to do the problem. I'll confuse one of the rules or misunderstand something. I need to start from the basics and keep learning how to approach the games so I don't panic.

Logic Games Difficulty

I have been studying for the LSAT for about 1month and 1 week. I have put in about 100 hours total so far for all the sections, but my logic games section is not improving at all. I have used my time thus far to go through the core curriculum so I have only spent about 20 hours probably all together doing logic games, but I feel very discouraged because everyone says they are the most learnable section and I can't figure out why I am having such difficulty. On my diagnostic I got 9 out of 23 questions in the logic games section, 7 out of 23 sections for the second practice test in the LG section, and 8 out of 23 in the LG section on the third practice test I just took today. Do you have any stories of major improvement on the logic games section or any tips? I plan to take the test on November 17 so I still have 4 months left to improve. I do pretty well on the other sections, but the logic games section significantly brings my score down. How long did it take you to improve your logic games section (if you weren't naturally great at it initially). I know it is going to take time, but I'm just worried. It would be nice to hear that someone improved significantly after struggling initially. Also, should I be taking practice tests every 2ish weeks if I haven't finished the core curriculum yet? Thank you.
