Adriana- I'm literally in the exact same situation! I'm currently a full-time student and took the August LSAT after studying and scoring in the low 160s. I got a 160 on my LSAT, but like you, I feel like I am seeing no im…

You are going to do amazing on the exam don't be too stressed. My tip if you want to see a jump in scores is to 1) get used to working when you are tired and 2) being slow and methodical when analyzing your mistakes.

I suggest taking a break from full practice tests and focusing more on drilling. That strategy helped me boost my score by 15 points. It’s also important to take breaks to avoid burnout.
Make sure to review your wron…

So for me, it's become gospel to take my time with every single question I encounter. It might sound simple, but it has done wonders for my progress. I stop after every sentence (or paragraph for RC) and put it into my own w…
active reading!!!! went from consistently missing around 12 per section to 5 or less- simply by changing the way i was reading (as someone who has never liked reading). i saw a tip somewhere that essentially told me to trick myself into enjoying the…

@natalierib17 I'm not OP but I've been in a similar place. Best thing I ever did was take a week off. If you're planning on testing in August, a week off is still feasible, or pushing the test back. If you're testing later, …

I'm late to the party, but I remember that 150s to 160s jump! Huge motivation boost and evidence that YOU'RE KILLING IT!!!
THANK YOU!!!! i can't tell you how much this means to me. this exam had me in such a tweakfest unti…

Congrats Adriana! I was wondering, what do you think was the best way you studied? In other words, what is your go-to study plan?

It very much may be a timing issue, try starting out with untimed sections before moving up to entire practice tests consistently to try and narrow down the exact cause
Thank you so much, > @"tinacioust-1" said:
Hi! I also still struggle with 5 star questions, but I noticed a lot of improvement once I started doing (1) thorough wrong answer journaling, and (2) attending the LR in Action class. For the WAJ, i…

Have you tried taking an untimed section? Maybe you're just feeling the time pressure
I have not! I know there is an option for unlimited time, but is it possible to hide the clock as well?
I'm experiencing the same thing! I'm starting to think it may be more of a stamina/overthinking/carelessness issue as opposed to a fundamental issue. Let me know if you find anything that works
They say to save the newer ones (PT80 and up) for when you want to simulate actual testing and sort of "temperature check" yourself in terms of how you would actually score. On the other hand, the rest of the tests should be used to really master th…
