hard work does pay off

Hey guys so I posted a comment a couple weeks ago on how I was testing at 154 and blind reviewing at 167, well now I am currently testing between 159-163, I obviously am aiming higher but it is satisfying watching yourself improve, so for those who may be frustrated right now keep pushing yourself and you will see results and this is coming from someone who had a diagnostic of a 145.

    Hi guys, so I started studying the beginning of May and put in a full 40 hour a week, I took my first real practice test at the end of June and scored a 152. I started 7sage in the beginning of july and that is when I felt everything began to click with respect to the lsat trainer, and I used the Manhattan prep for logical reasoning. I started scoring between a 154-157 and blind reviewing in the high 160s throughout the month of July. The month of august is when i started creeping into the 160 region, and again I was putting in a full 40 hour week. For me one of my issue was not finishing the test on time, where I would miss 5 questions for logical reasoning per section, so building speed with practice has helped me a lot. I also learnt it's okay to skips questions and answer other questions you are more likely to get right.

    @gills123 great work! keep your nose to the grind stone and keep up the gains.

    My diagnostic was 148. I'm PTing in the mid to high 160s and BRing in the 170s now. Logic, time management, self-discipline, reading retention -- these things are all learnable/improvable.
