I also work full time ( 6 days a week). For me, I treat Lsat study like a second job. I try to set fixed hours ( I work 8-6 m-f, 9-5 on sat) like 8-10 m-f, and 7-9 on saturday to study. However, if I am overly tired, i take the day off from study, and make up the time on sunday/ saturday. I find that this helps me stay focused, and yet still be able to enjoy the nice summer months.

There is still plenty of time to get ready for october, even with a full schedule. You just have to understand that in order to get as much study time in, you have to forgo some fun things ( but the bright side is that you save money, and dont have to cope with hangovers or whatnot)

cheers and good luck

Wow! that is your study hours for a retake? or for your first time? I have a similar work schedule (include full time student hours where you have LSAT hour) and I am considering a re-take. If I do, I can only forsee one full PT per week (cut down a little on time because I struggle with timing a bit) and a few sections throughout the week. This is why my retake is just contemplation, and I haven't decided yet... :(
