Predicting/anticipating Score?

kkarlenekkarlene Free Trial Member
I've been taking practice tests for about a month now (only 1 or 2 a week) but every test I've taken my score has gone up. It's making it really challenging to anticipate where I'll be on test day. Any thoughts?

Diagnostic: 156
June 2015 test: 160
Recent practice tests:

Pt 62: 165
Pt 63: 166
Pt 64: 167
Pt 65: 168
Pt 66: 169

My hope is to take PT 67-70 before test day, maybe those will give me a better picture?

    Congrats, that is certainly awesome!

    Hard to say because you haven't taken any of the 70s PTs yet, and often people need a bit of time to get acclimated with those before one can get an accurate read on what score to expect. Are you taking in a couple weeks?

    Conventional wisdom is that you average out your 3 most recent exams, and your actual score will be +/- 3 of that number. Most experience a slight drop for one reason or another.

    I'd highly recommend taking a few PTs in the 70s before sitting for the exam

    I have never seen such a hilarious march of consistent progress in LSAT scores! That's great. It looks like you need to take 11 more tests!

    Great advice to take tests in the 70s. It sounds like I should use my last two weeks on those.

    Hopefully that will give me a better idea.

    Yeah, basically everyone sees a substantial drop when they hit the 70's. Don't take in sequence, jump around.
