Thank you guys for the feedback! Especially Alex with your very in depth advice for my situation. It does make a lot of sense since this is the one factor keeping me from T3 that I do take the time I need for my score. It's just difficult with this schedule unless I take even more time off work... which I could do but I feel is so unproductive.

I guess it's a matter of priorities

So much prep, so little time. Retraining for the LSAT

Dear 7Sage fam,

I am going to register for the December LSAT and will begin prepping mid September. This leaves me a solid 10 weeks of studying time to shoot for 170+ coming from PTs 157-160. I was prepping for the LSAT at one time (where I got my PTs from), and then decided to post-pone test taking for another time since I took up a demanding full-time position. I actually was a 7Sager before the whole copy-right incident happened! :o

Anyways... is this a possibility? Literally the only thing I need for HYS is a 170+

LSAT score and the reason I cannot take a later test is because my 80-88hr work weeks start back up in January until the end of August. (My job is freakin awesome, it just requires work). The cool thing is the only work required of me during this 10 week period are attending a 2 conferences in Jacksonville and Puerto Vallarta for a few days each. Other than that I have all the time in the world to prep!

LG was my most solid section typically -3 to -5

LR and RC... welp.

Any tips? Encouragement to go for it? Discouragement because I'm crazy?

There's a 7Sage Podcast where a woman increases from 148-180 (yes 180) while having a full time job, one child, training for a marathon, and pregnant. She scores her 180 while 7 months pregnant. Her only window for studying was 4:30am-6:30am every day. After 7:00am she actually had zero time between her job, marriage, kids, and physical training.

I am not this busy, but run my own business from 9am-8pm M-Sa and usually a few hours Sunday. I've adapted her schedule and I've gotten 10 hours of focused studying/week by waking up at 4:30am. I usually sleep by 10pm. I'd recommend the same and aim for a later test date until you're PTing where you want to be.
