Studying Advice

I’m trying to figure out how to move forward with my LSAT studying and thought I’d ask you guys.

My practice LSAT scores are in the mid-150s. That’s good enough to get in to my schools of choice, but I’d like to get a 160 for better scholarship opportunities. I’m taking the September LSAT, so I’m running out of time. I have purchased the 7Sage course and am going through their study schedule example. Should I focus more on practice tests and blind reviewing them or on the curriculum? Or curriculum with a mix of practice tests? Is a 160 even doable at this point?

Any bits of wisdom or advice is much appreciated!

    How are you doing on LGs? Because if you haven't perfected LG or at least brought that section down to around -2 then I'd say your best bet is to drill LG like no other until september and pick up the points you need for a 160.

    My LGs definitely need more work. I can do them with plenty of time, but when timed I'm averaging around -9 to -6. Thank you for the advice!

    @swilson6731 It really depends on how well you do on blind review! If your blind review score is high, that suggests that you understand the material enough, and that your real issue in timing. In that event, drilling your weakness is the route to success.

    However, if your blind review is still below your goal score, that suggests that you are still missing some key concepts and will need to study more before you can expect to achieve that score.
