OK, so my tutor and I set a goal of 165 my first lsat in 2009 was a 141. I took LSAT 68 as my first diagnostic since that test this last March (stupid I know I know) and got a 141 it was basically cold i just studied the PS games bibles.
I just started PTs again a few weeks ago and went from 141 to 149, 152 and not 157. I'm taking th Oct LSAT can I go beyond the 165 goal? Or is that asking too much?
I hear so much about the limits of where one can go, how much one can raise their score realistically. I have another 62 or so LSATS to blow through in that time and my biggest enemy is timing. I need a little encouragement. I'm shoting for the 180 and if I dont get it so what? I'll get as closs as I can.

If you have 62 left, you haven't been taking enough practice tests, step your game up!

Glad you share the same sentiment. I immediately dropped my tutor after he stated a realistic goal for me should be 165, stating that a 170+ is unlikely. I am now at a 165-167 range with two months to go. Some people should not be tutors.

Thats from a RC passage.
btw, you get your full use from pts after you've done them 3 times over.
Then you can say you're done.
Jaylawyer09 I would be happy to redo the prep tests, esp. since I ordered 3 more of the 10 LSAT pt books and they don't arrive for another day or so. I'm itching to do another test but my problem with retaking lsats is that I feel like I'm cheating when I jump to an answer I remember to be correct.
I guess I can go over yesterday's test and see where I went wrong on some answers. LSAT 68 has the African film maker passage that I am very familiar with and I feel like it's almost counter productive to redo it.
