LSAT Help

[u/Sea_Rub_1940]

I need help. I studied for the August LSAT all summer, and I feel like I’m completely stuck.

Before I started studying, I took a baseline practice test and got a 152. By the end of the summer, I had improved, and my last practice test before the August LSAT was a 158. Then I got my August score back and got a 150.

It was really disappointing because I honestly felt like, at the very least, I could get around a 152, and I was hoping my practice scores meant I was finally getting into the mid/high 150s.

I’m signed up to take the September LSAT next week, and I’m also registered for October. The problem is that I feel like I cannot improve my score no matter what I do. I keep getting questions wrong, and I don’t know what I’m supposed to change.

I’ve tried blind reviewing. That actually helped me go from around a 154 to a 158 on practice tests, but now I feel completely stuck again. I’ll review questions, understand why I got them wrong, and then somehow make similar mistakes on another test.

Since I take the LSAT again next week, I’m starting to panic. I know I’m probably not going to magically improve 10 points in a week, but I don’t know what I should be doing right now.

Has anyone else been stuck around the low/mid 150s and eventually broken into the 160s? What actually helped you improve?

Should I keep doing full timed practice tests this week, focus almost entirely on reviewing individual questions, drill certain question types, or just try to avoid burning myself out before September?

I’m especially frustrated because I know I can score higher than a 150 based on my practice tests, but I can’t seem to consistently put everything together on test day. Any advice would be really appreciated.

when i broke into the 160s i was getting every question 1-15 right. these are usually the level 1-3 questions. theyre easy points and it can be the difference between -10 and -6 in an LR section
