Can't you take the July test and cancel after you see your score? Might be a good option.
Also, just re-reading your post, you only want to take the test when your score is in the range you want. You're pretty far from that now; keep studying.
I will be 25. I worked for 2 years straight out of college in a very demanding industry and then took this year (my 3rd year out of college) off to study for the LSAT and recover a little before throwing myself back into the trenches. Sometimes, I w…
I did the interview for this cycle and was accepted. They ask you not to discuss specifics so I can't do that. But my overriding advice is to not to sweat it! You are smart and capable to have made it this far, and they just want to hear your though…
@eastcoastdionne I retook the PTs I had done earliest. For me, I think that ended up being like numbers 50-65 or something like that. The two weeks before I retook the LSAT I counted back with the 5 most recent PTs (so I took 85 on the Wednesday bef…
@"Better every day" I didn't blind review the reading comp. Maybe it will be helpful for you, and it definitely can't hurt. I think just doing a lot of them is more important. Some other advice I'd give is to try to read the passage at a high-level …
I was in a very similar position to you; I got a score in high 160s on September 2018 LSAT and was out of practice tests. I re-took in November and got a 173 (I went -1 on RC). Here's what I did from September to November: I took 3 practice tests a …
If you wrote a thesis too, do a separate publications/thesis section. I put mine underneath my Education section. Put where it was published too and add context if that publication isn’t self explanatory. So they know it wasn’t published by like Spo…
I would definitely not retake a 172. In my mind, I don't think it's a question of whether or not it is worth the time. Regression to the mean is a real thing, and if you already scored above your average, it's more likely that you'd score lower than…

I messed up on the last game of the real LR. The one with Saturday- Sunday sequencing. I drew the diagram with only 6 days instead of 7 and only realized this mistake at the 5 minute warning. I b…

predictions on the curve?
I'm going to guess -11. Based 90% on unfounded optimism and 10% on the 1st LR being hard and the mining logic game.
Yes, you do need to assume that the people regularly doing physical work are getting exercise from it.
Regarding your last point:
1) This is a weaken question so all of the answer choices are true. Like I said, one of the tricky things about this …
A - D are all pretty cookie cutter flawed argument types.
E:
If the SC has a quorum, then the party is at 6.
By the laws of time (and based on every sci-fi movie, you can't mess with the laws of time) [If the party is at 6, then the party is not …
I'll go through both ways: why E is right and why A-D are wrong.
Why E is right:
Premise: Medical professionals are aware that lower back injuries are much higher among office workers who spend all day sitting at their desk (i.e. investment bankin…
You're talking about the weight-training one, right? I'll go through both ways: why E is right and why A-D are wrong.
Why E is right:
Premise: You have two groups, A and B. Group A is taking an aerobics class (I want to say soul-cycle but soul-cyc…
Sure, but you aren't describing basketball. You're describing some entirely made up game scenario that would work for literally anything (e.g. throwing darts from varying distances, kicking field goals from differently assigned distances, or hitting…
If you are scoring in the low 150s and your goal is the mid-160s, you shouldn't take it in November. You should withdraw. If you do that, the earliest you could apply in this cycle would be February, I'd assume. That would put you at a disadvantage.…
You should go. I cannot imagine telling my sister "I'm sorry I missed the birth of your daughter, but I really needed to keep the routine I was taking practice LSATs consistent."
How many questions do you get wrong in blind review? If you're getting 5 or more wrong in blind review, I think that means you have some problems with your foundational understanding of the logical reasoning question types. No skipping strategy will…
My average for reading comp. is -1 to -3. Some sections I go -0 and some I go -4. I've always read a lot, and my strength on past standardized tests has been reading comprehension. While I agree that reading comp is the section of the LSAT where you…
