Stuck in PT40s

I usually get 6-7 wrong per LR section in late PT50s or early 60s. Yet, when I did PT40s(PT42), I got 10 wrong per section. I felt lost and confused. Should I review the CC before doing more timed section or PT?

    Assuming all variables were controlled for during your PT: you didn't have a cold, you weren't unusually distracted etc, my recommendation would be to review the CC and review PT 42 thoroughly before continuing to more PTs. Consider this a learning opportunity, get as much as you possibly can from that PT for your journey forward. Really review what you missed. Any questions on particulars, don't hesitate to reach out.

    Depends. Take a look at your analytics for those tests. What does it say your priority is for LR? Based on that information I would review the Core Curriculum and do additional drills. At this point, if you have already done the core curriculum, I wouldn't just go back to all of it - that would take too long and it might waste time on things you are already good at! I would try to find out the particular weaknesses you might have and focus on that.

    I deleted the previous PTs I did and wanna review the CC or finish the rest since I still have 50% left.

    @dennisgerrard I don't think there's a huge difference between missing 6-7 and missing 10 because they both fall in roughly the same range and we need to base where we are off of a range not one PT or one score. If you have not finished the CC I would finish it. It's February and you have plenty of time to finish the CC and take lots of PTs before writing an exam.

    Those are my two cents anyway. :)

    Yeah, definitely finish the CC completely - it can make a world of difference!

    Also, as Sami said above, use your analytics to see where you can allocate specific study time to gaining a better understanding of.

    I had very similar experience even after I finished CC. I would recommend the LSAT Trainer as a supplement.
