I'm signed up for the Oct 2011 LSAT and started studying 2 weeks ago. I took a practice test today and made a 143. When I reviewed the questions, I noticed that I answered most of them right but ran out of time. For example: one of the 25 question sections I completed around 17, missed 3, 14 correct, and didn't answer the rest (I know I should have just to see if I got lucky on a few of them).I need some advice on how to work on timing better and also a study plan that will help me for the next 7/8 weeks!

I'm aiming for a 165 or higher, do I have enough time to reach my goal since I started studying so late? I'm studying 7 to 8 hours every day for the remaining time. Thank you for your time!

I'm in the same position as you, so I have decided to register for the Kaplan prep course this Sept. and how it's not a waste of money.

If you take the October exam and find yourself unable to finish the sections in time, then you can always cancel the results. Depending on when you wish to start law school, taking it in December might be too late for applying this cycle. Or at least, it might mean a number of WL where you would've otherwise gotten in if you applied earlier.

I would postpone till December 2011...you need more time to get down your technique.
