I was struggling to answer the questions within the allotted time on LC. However, I am now at a point where I am able to answer 20 of the 25. The issue is that I guess on the last five, but seem to have lost accuracy. It's not that I have gotten any worse, it's just that I thought by answering more questions that would improve my score. It has either dropped or staying the same. Is this the correct approach?

It sounds like you should not take the exam in October. These last seven and a half weeks are not for learning and working on the fundamentals, they are for perfecting what you already know and maintaining accuracy. I know this is probably not the response you were looking for, but I feel obligated to share my view with you. You just claimed that you have only taken 2-3 preptests, which implies that you either just started studying, or you do not study that often. You should not take the exam until you are fully prepared. I have been studying for eight months and I have completed over 65 PTs. It took me a little over six months to break the 170+ ceiling and, if I had taken the exam in June, I would not have performed to my best ability. This exam is worth A LOT. It determines where you will spend the next three years studying law, how much aid you receive from schools, and what kind of job you will be competitive for.
Full disclosure, I have no idea if I’m more accurate yet since I’m still BR-ing the test. Also, I have been using another tool to improve my reading. It’s an iPad app called Elevate. I use it(particularly the Processing Game) every day. I have no idea, though, if it’s the work with Elevate or the fact that I’ve completed 15 PTs that’s helped increase my speed.
Good luck!
