Hmm this is hard because you are so close to your goal and have a good amount of time left. ~6 weeks-ish.

I know skipping is a recommended strategy, but at some point I need to take on my fear, don't I? My goal score is 170+
Yeah to get to 170+ you really can’t have any weaknesses so you do need to take this on. For me, ... -

High PT score followed by low scoreDoes anyone experience scoring high on a PT (above your average) and then taking your next one, only to find you dipped below your average? I notice …
@nantesorkestar said:
Could this perhaps be overconfidence?
Perhaps...figure out where you went wrong...since you're only 5-6 points away from your goal you should be seeing that score on your last 5 PTs before you take the LSAT. -
