Hi everyone-- checking in! I'm waiting for my Sept score but it's very likely I'll be retaking in December so I might as well start now. I'll be coming up with a PT schedule tonight.

Welcome! I'm doing 55-present in the remaining time.
A bunch of us are doing 55 this weekend if you haven't done it yet.

Thanks rigo! Do you guys review it somewhere together or just talk about it here? 55 would be a good place for me to start! I'll probably add a few of the older tests that I've never done (A, B, some in the 30s) to my schedule as well.

This will be the first test we've done together as a group so we don't have a set protocol yet. I foresee us discussing it here if anybody wants to.

Sounds good to to me! I'll be around so whatever you guys decide I'll just join.

What you guys think is a realistic max amount of time one could spend studying LSAT-related lsat stuff a day?
Currently un-employed with little/no social life besides watching football on sundays. Been doin light prep on and off the past 2 weeks but really trying to buckle down for the 6th of December.

Similar situation here. Worked all throughout college so I decided to study for the LSAT full-time with an on-site prep course. On a typical day, I do LSAT for about 2-5 hours which can consist of doing homework, review, drilling, or PT's. I usually take Sundays off because it's sort of my Church day and I usually don't study after 6PM unless it's my prep class (6-10pm). I spend my evenings getting dinner with friends or watching movies/TV shows. I work out (weightlifting) in the morning 6x a week before LSAT studying.

Enough rambling, but it's not so much about how many hours you put in, all about the quality of your prepping. How are you scoring PT'ing wise? How you prep at this point can also vary depending on your current score.

Did a PT on Monday and did pretty awful got a 154. Got from now til 12/6 to hopefully get above a 165. I'm an AA male so Im really trying to score above that benchmark

That's not too bad of a score if you recently started prepping. Quite a few of us in this thread are hitting the mid 150's right now (myself included).

Start drilling using the Cambridge Packets if you haven't already. You can download (purchase) packets based on LR Question Types, LG Game types, and RC Subjects for PT 1-38's.

Yeah I got the LR cambridge book with all the Qs from PTS 1-20, and I also got the complete PTs 1-20 and 19-28 and 39,40, 51-62 and 40 also. in addition to these I got all the PS bibles and the LG PS workbook. I'm pretty good at Logic games but struggle with RC and some difficult LR questions at this point.
