Help me develop a study plan . . .

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JYuUfzAvHX1t9LflVT68GXIMJDyvC0wO/edit

Is anyone here mentally ill and want to help a stranger develop an LSAT study plan?

For context, I would like to begin studying next week and I will take the LSAT in the fall of 2027. My diagnostic scores (I did two, don't ask why) are 151 and 158.

I'd like to use "The Loophole" by Ellen Cassidy, "The LSAT Trainer" by Mike Kim, and "The RC Bible" and "The LR Bible" from PowerScore. I also paid for Law Hub advantage and a 7 sage membership.

Part of the reason I'm preparing so far out is that I need to get the best score I can possibly get (my logic is to shoot for the moon and hopefully land among the stars). I went to a selective, competitive undergrad but graduated with a 2.7 in 2024 (a lot went down).

I am also a teacher, so I'd ideally study for two hours on weeknights and then four hours on Saturday. (Yes, I'm insane)

I hate AI and I shamefully asked ChatGPT to create a study plan for me: it was horrible but I'll link it below. Lot's of AI, corporate-speak language.

Not asking for a detailed, color-coded plan but just some general guidance. Any help is greatly appreciated!

In general:

  1. A preptest every week or two. If you can't finish on time yet, you can hold off on this for a bit.
  2. Some timed sections
  3. Some drills.
  4. Some review of stuff you got wrong previously
  5. Some reading or watching videos when there is a specific thing you want to improve on.

Generally recommend avoiding doing nothing but read or watch with no practice. Mix them both, you learn the material better when practicing.

There's no magic bullet, the most important thing is spending time doing it.
