Yeah, for sure. It's pretty common, actually. Good luck!

Depends on your natural ability and how hard/smart you work, but if I were you I would feel encouraged and shoot for the mid 170s.

especially since LG is the easiest to get perfect consistently with work 170s should not be considered impossible!

There are so many stories of people who increased by 10-20 points (posters who started with a diagnostic in the 150's and ended up with a score in the 170's); you have no need to be worried about whether it is possible or not.

You just need to be worried about figuring out how to duplicate the journey that so many others have made.

Ya, if you screwed up on LG in your diagnostic, you have an easier time of increasing your score.

I went +13 on my diagnostic.

Good luck, OP.

Am I the only one who never took a diagnostic? I just started with powerscore books and eventually starting PTs after I had finished 2. I have no idea what I would have gotten on an LSAT without any prep.

I never took one either. I didn't even time myself initially while I was getting familiar with the problem types.

OP - Do ALL the PTs. I've now done all the logic games one's twice.
