Breaking the 175 barrier?
Paul Caint
Alum Member ⭐
Hi!
So I've taken around 9 LSAT preptests so far and I've yet to get below a 170 (yay!). I understand this is a good problem to have, but my range of scores is really varied:
175 | 174 | 172 | 170 | 171 | 174 | 177 | 173 | 171
As you can see, my "slippage" rate seems pretty high, anywhere from -4 on a whole exam to -10. For any of you guys that managed to get consistently above 175, are there any special strategies that you employed to move from the the 170-174 to the 175-180?
My section score distribution usually looks something like:
RC: [0 to -3]
LR1: [0 to -3]
LR2: [0 to -3]
LG: 0
Any tips, tricks, advice, or motivation would be super helpful! Thanks in advance.
P.S. - I'm taking the exam in September

Thanks for those links!
With that breakdown, I think you'll most likely need to focus on LR. A potential for -6 total on your LR is a catastrophe if you're pushing for +175. Cut that in half and that should give you the consistency you're looking for.
Wha's your starting point?
Starting point at the beginning was a 158 on my first diagnostic.
