RIP KOBE

Hi,

Similar situation happened to me a couple months back. I was crying over a PT because I hadn't hit a personal best in a month and a half, kept going down. I have a few pieces of advice that helped me through it.

Progress isn't linear. Especially on a conceptual test like the LSAT where a 2 question difference could mean a difference of 2 points overall. You're gonna go down every once in a while. Just keep at it! Your highest and your lowest score could be a fluke. You're working on consistent scoring here. A 160 might feel nice, but it'd feel nicer just to be able to consistently hit that.

The LSAT is a mental test. You need to be in routines and have the right mindset for each section. For instance, RC takes extreme focus and interest during a passage, then you need to be able to relax to think about the question sets. A lot of these sections require you to slow down, not get frustrated, and stay fresh. I took the LSAT-Flex in June and scored 158, 10 points lower than what I was PTing at. It's because my proctors kept coming in and out, I got so angry that I was kicking things and it completely messed my score up. It's very very possible that your 152 is a result of discouragement, frustration, or distraction. Stay as fresh as you can, don't burn yourself out, and keep a positive mindset.

"You show me someone that has the discipline to keep testing and practicing through this discouragement and trials; I'll show you someone who'd make an excellent lawyer." Don't give up, OP. This is not only a logical test, it's a test of discipline. If you can't sit through months of this grueling practice and reading, you might wanna rethink going to law school. You got this OP. Keep a positive attitude, every day is a new day.
