Daily LSAT Study Schedule Thoughts?

Hello everyone,

I have been studying for the past month with the hopes of taking the June LSAT, but I unfortunately am not ready and will be taking the October one. Foolish of me to think I could improve 20 points in a month, I know. My diagnostic was a 151 and I scored a 163 on my last PT. Now that I'm taking the October test, I was wondering how helpful these study schedule guides are from lsatblog.blogspot.com

I was thinking of purchasing the 4 month day-by-day study schedule, but wanted everyone's thoughts first. Worth it? There are multiple testimonials, but I have no idea how credible they are. My goal is to score 170+. Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Side note: Getting on average 18 right on LR, all games right, and can only get through 3 passages of RC, missing about 1-2 for each.

I've never seen nor used a commercial study guide. I suggest just looking up information on this forum about it. It's cheaper and most likely better.

I also think that if you're going to truly devote that much time to studying for the LSAT, you need to know and understand why a schedule is a certain way, not just rely on someone else's opinion for it. Are those testimonials from people exactly like you...? Or are they perhaps testimonials of people who were paid to give them? :)

You're the only one who knows your own limits and needs. Do some studying and figure it out for yourself. I think you'll be glad you did.

Sounds like maybe you should take a month off LSAT prep to focus on increasing your reading speed so you can get through all 4 passages?
