Hey all! I've taken the LSAT three times so far-- September 2020, Jan 2021, and October 2021 (After a 6 month brain break.) I've consistently seen improvement in my scores and for both the Jan and October tests I was consistently scoring between 171 and 174 on recent prep tests under exact LSAT flex conditions, and yet I scored a 166 and 167 respectively on the actual day of the test.
Anyone else struggle with something similar, and have any suggestions on ways to prep differently in the two weeks leading up to the November test? I think the Logic Games messed me up in the October test because that was the one section I studied less of this round because last year it was always the easiest section for me, so I'm refreshing my knowledge and re-memorizing hard LGs now.

happened to me too - especially for LR. I think somewhere around the late 70's range the writers just get way more creative with coming up with flawed arguments that just arent intuitive i.e. check out some of 'flaw' questions deep into the sections in the 80's and craft stims/AC's that penalize you for deferring to question type specific strategies
Yeah, I'm thinking I'm going to throw out the PTs I was planning on taking later this week that aren't in the 80+ range and just spend those days drilling LRs in the high 70s/on 80s I've taken before.
