I'm confused when it comes to the best way to take older prep tests: simulate modern vs. don't simulate. The old tests had two LR sections, which isn't representative anymore except that it provides a four-section experience, thereby helping test-takers when it comes to training our stamina for the actual test. However, taking a 3-section test also isn't really representative because the actual test will have an experimental section. I'm also concerned that by cutting out the second LR section, the final score will be skewed. For example, the last test I took I did both LR sections. One I got -2 and the other I got -7! If the -7 section had been cut, my score would have been boosted significantly, possibly leading to a false sense of progress. How does 7Sage determine which LR section to cut?

Some thoughts:
I would cancel your June test (not the score; cancel your registration) if you are pretty sure that you will not do well. I'd hold off until you feel more ready and then register. You will lose the $200 you spent registering. That's annoying, but I'd do it anyway. Law school costs about 1,000 times as much as this test — consider these fees a drop in the bucket.
There is a feature for first time test takers that allows you to see your score before canceling. You only get this once. I do not recommend using it up for a test for which you feel ill prepared.
Finally, I've heard a range of advice from podcasts and other sources, but you definitely don't want to actually take the actual LSAT 7 times. I'd say 4-5 is a good maximum to aim for. Take as many practice tests as possible, but only go into the real thing when you're confident you can do well/better than last time.
