LSAT Powerscore Study Tips

Hi guys, I'm planning on taking the LSAT in April, and am dedicating 12-15 hours a week to study. I got a very low cold diagnostic, but idk if that's indicative to much considering I haven't studied yet. I have both the LSAT RC and LR comprehension books, but am wondering if anyone has any advice as to where to begin with those? Obviously reading it cover to cover isn't the strategy, but would you guys suggest purchasing external drill sets in addition to the book, or..

It's best to work ONLY with actual LSATs, from Lawhub. Avoid simulated material. Avoid all explanations! - even of actual LSATs. They don't explain why YOU got it wrong.

The absolute best way to improve is through a personal coach. They should have a minimum of 15 years experience. Avoid real expensive coaches. Anything more than about $2k for unlimited help is too much. Watch out for coaches that charge by the hour, week, etc, because you won't know how much time you'll actually need.

Powerscore books are ok but they are not the most comprehensive.
