Dilemma Regarding Test Dates

Hans Zimmer

Hi everyone,

So I initially set aside 4 months (May-August) to study full-time for the LSAT and plan on writing the end of August. I've been studying about 4-6 hours per day for the past month here on 7Sage and I'm about 34% of the way through the CC. Overall it's going well enough, however I am afraid that I've perhaps not allocated myself enough time to prepare. I should be able to finish the CC by mid July, leaving me approximately a month and a half to consistently take PTs and review. My diagnostic was a 144 but I really feel I could have done a bit better (family was making plenty of noise during the later portion).

I am dead set on being admitted for 2021 (to a Canadian School), so the other option is to take the October test. However, I feel that restricting myself to one attempt would apply extra pressure.

I have already registered for the August date and I am considering registering for the October date as well. This really is a sticky situation since I may only get my test results back from the August test just before the October test, and thus not be within the range to cancel. Conversely, I don't want to bank on doing well in August and be too late to register for the October test in the event that my results are not up to par.

I would sincerely appreciate any advice!
