Checking in. Was averaging very high but tore my eardrum open/double ear infection so not sure I performed to potential. Will mostly be doing maintenance til December as I already think I have a very strong grasp of test.

Took about 70 practice tests, averaged around 176... i'd be lucky if I scored a 175 today. very lucky

had a streak from 30-50 where I was getting great scores - are these known to be easier?

what do y'all suggest for someone who's done all of the PT's to do at this point? don't wanna overkill and repeat the last few months between now and december... i botched the reading today, and I don't think I wanna go over the earlier reading passages again. the questions changed so much after ~PT 50.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Yes for the bolded. No matter what people say my scores are much higher on older tests than on recent ones, esp on RC

also interested in any tips on perfect scorers in 70s RC. Rc is pretty much the only thing keeping me from 170+

completely agree, had a stretch in the 40s where RC was automatics -1 or -2 at worst, recent RC is more difficult but I think the LG makes up for it.

Unless you have a horrendous GPA, just apply with a 172+. Probably not worth delaying until Dec.

I miss -2 at most in the old RC but 70s rc I go -6/-9. LG may be slightly difficult in older tests than newer but I score the same in it

can't say this for certain but i think the newer RCs are disproportionately more difficult, again this is purely personal experience but i tend to do no worse than -4 on RCs but the more recent ways (minus june test) is more like -5 while LG is consistent between -2 or 0 for me

So - how do I improve that RC score? Read more? Any way I can make a more deliberate effort?

* please dont quote

anyone take at JFK University Law school in Pleasant Hill?

they seemed to have seated 4 people per two desks so your almost have body contact to the person on either side of you, which is very distracting. did any room at jfk university not have such crowded seating?
