You should register ASAP if you are that sure you are going to take it. I registered last week and 1 of the 2 test centres in the city I'm going to take it in was already full.

A retaker here. Will not be able to take it in the US though, going back to my home country. They don't administer the LSAT there, so I'll probably need to take it in Europe or Dubai.

Checking in. I took the test in December, didn't do well, and motivated to do better. I was planning on registering for the June exam, but I was busy trying to find a full-time job to satisfy my gap year or two with. Thank god I didn't though from what I've seen of the thread. Now that I secured a job, I'm back to dedicating my time to LSAT! Been re-reading my manhattan LR book to start off with since I bombed LR last exam and did really well on LG. Using a cambridge LR drill book I boguht for tests 1-20 however I probably do need to buy those packets. 56/58 on Difficulty 1 (those 2 wrong questions were kind of silly mistakes).

Looking forward to working with you all!

What are your strategies for studying for September? I kind of just wanna go through everything all over again, albeit much faster, but that's just because I am OCD, it's probably unnecessary and would only marginally be beneficial. But anyway, what are y'all's plans? I wish I had a very detailed history of every test I have taken and every week I studied and every section I did, but I don't. Wah.

Checking in. Waiting until scores come back to make a decision and study plan but unless there is a very generous curve I'll be seeing you all again in September.

I'm taking a week off and then probably rotating between 1-2 games, an RC section, and a dozen or so LR questions 3-4 times a week until June scores come out, just to stay sharp. If it's gonna be a retake, Ill probably move to more focused drilling until mid-August, and then P-testing through test day.

Don't do that. One day you'll be living the dream in Hawaii, the next you'll be in shithole PA with three kids screaming.

I'm referring to my life btw
this made me laugh...

In on this. June was rough. I was prepared, but could have been a lot more prepared...something I realized on the fourth RC passage- a "i'm fucked" moment, for sure. I am not even waiting to start studying and just gathered a bunch more prep stuff today. Even if by some miracle I do well on this test, I feel like I could do better- something that may be worth the extra studying time.

Most likely will be re-taking after that horrendous June performance.

Well kids look like its official. Went -6 on LG (Game 4 and made 2 dumb mistake a bet) -8 on RC (absolutely got demolished on that last read), and I think -10 on LR. Total score for me was 163. With a score like that it looks like I can get into UC Hastings and UC Davis, but the chances of me getting into USC or UCLA are basically not coming true (I want to stay and work in CA). So here is to September.

Gonna start with PT 42 next week

Checking in! I need to get my LR numbers up, badly. I went -4 LG, -6 RC, and -8, -9 LR (embarrassing!!), hoping for a 165+ to get into regionals.

I've done most of the Trainer, but it didn't seem to help get my LR score up much (154 cold diagnostic, 160 june), with the most improvement in LG. Any advice on the best material for people who just don't "get" LR? PS Bible? I feel like I understand it, but I don't have a reasoning behind my answer choice; I just pick the one that sound rights and need to develop a real strategy.
