Testmasters vs. Something Else for Sept. LSAT

Getting back into studying for the LSAT and was hoping for some quality TLS advice on which to use given my particular situation.

Background:
Oct. '13 164, Dec. '13 165, decided to retake and sit out a year (I've got a teaching job that I was able to keep). Took a Kaplan online course for the first LSAT and did some moderate self-study for the second one, but had disappointing results and felt like I underperformed (PTs were in the 168-172 range).

Gameplan:
Revving the engine back up to study again and am hitting things pretty hard, but I've got a seat deposit down for a Testmasters class in town (not going the online route anymore). Realized I probably should've hit the forums first, but $100 isn't so bad to burn if I need to take another course.

I'm also planning on doing some self-study outside the course by using some insights from other TLS guides.

I'd like to know if Testmasters is worth it or if I should use something else.

Thanks y'all.

Disclaimer: have not taken the LSAT yet and am just going on gut feeling

Have you considered self-studying for a while then getting a tutor that will target your specific weaknesses? It seems like with a score in the mid 160s you would have a solid grasp of the fundamentals. Maybe you need some targeted focus to get past your plateau. Just a thought.
