I'm doing a Testmasters course for prep. I work MWF from 8:30am- 3PM (Tues/Thurs 8:30AM-5PM). I study MWF from 3:30-8:00/8:30PM. Tues/Thurs I go to the prep course from 6-10pm. I'm also studying weekends from about 10AM-4PM. I've taken three diagnostics and my score has remained the same (141). I'm not finishing half of the exam but my accuracy is improving. I've been putting in massive work these past few weeks, drilling LR/LG's/RC.
I want to break 160 by the Sept LSAT.
ANY ADVISE? I'm starting to freak out because I'm not improving
I would advise you postpone. You aren't likely to jump 20 points in 6 weeks, Something you are doing clearly isn't working, thus, I would reevaluate your approach.
First, don't take any more diagnostics, at this point in your prep, you're wasting valuable tests you can actually get something out of later on.
Second, Don't freak out, but you need to change how you're studying. I'd recommend the Powerscore Books, to begin with. I think they are easiest to understand and start with for many of the people I know who used them, myself included.
If you're scoring a 141 you need to learn basic fundamentals. Is it too late to get a refund from Testmasters?
You have to remember that your speed is tied directly to your accuracy and understanding of the tasks the LSAT is asking of you.
Well, in any case, let me know what you think of these suggestions, op. But first and foremost I wouldn't plan on taking the LSAT in September...
