I need a 160. I got a 147. My last test I got a 152 ( about 3 weeks ago though ). Maybe my score is a couple of points lower than it was before i even began studying at all because I took the test so late in the day and my mind was already kind of scatter-brained.
Nevertheless,
I just bombed the test.
I have 6-7 more tests scheduled before the sept 27 test ( maybe 8 tests )
Anyone experienced gains in such a time frame..with such a score? Good lord lol.

Two weeks ago I scored 13 points below my PT the week before. Why? I didn't get 8 hours sleep, at times I was hungry, I hadn't 'warmed up'. Next week, I was back to normal. Examine what you did wrong to prepare that day. So much is in preparation. Did you eat enough? Stay away from alcohol the night before? Not take the test at the end of the day when you're exhausted? Learn from this. If you want to score that 160, external factors can't be what drag you down.
As far as studying, I think you should be going way harder, if possible. I work full time and go to school 2 evenings a week, but I take at least 2.5 PT's a week and wake up early every morning to review. I'm going to keep doing that until a few days before the test. Without a eat/sleep/LSAT mantra, I can't see myself scoring what I do now.
A 147 is just bonkers assuming you've actually been studying, which I have reason to believe is suspect.
And the deadline has passed to change...BUT you can withdraw up until midnight the night before and it doesn't show up in your official report. you only lose the registration fee. Regardless of the range of PT scores, or what you need to get, a PT score drastically different from what you want so close to the test is something you really should consider. Don't hope for the best on the actual day.
