Questions after Sep LSAT Forum

I don't want to get ahead of myself but i just finished up the September LSAT and throughout the whole test I felt confident. Until..the last section of games. I don't know what happened, games are normally my favorite and most confident part of the LSAT but I screwed up a tidge and lost track of time. Had to guess on a few questions on the last game or two and it has me a little worried. I was hitting my target score and I know there is still a chance if I did as well on RC and LR as I feel I did, but worse case I would like to try and retake the test with a little more practice most likely in Feb to really crush my target score. My question is how do I continue to study? I have been studying for close to 6 months and with about 5 months until the Feb test what should I use for material? Over the 6 plus months of studying I have taken all the PT's 60-70, and a almost all from 50-60 between actual PT's and drilling question types. I have also used a majority of the 40's and a few scattered throughout the lower tests. I am just worried that I don't have any PT's left to continue to work and better my skill without any unused material. Have you guys ever been in the same situation or know of anything I can do to accurately and effectively continue to prepare if I end up retaking in Feb? Thanks for the help and insight.

I am in exactly the same situation, actually. I plan on taking two or three weeks off from LSAT prep and during this time catching up on school work, enjoying football weekends without PTing and studying, and getting my personal statements and references together so that I can apply right after I get my score.

Sounds like you aren't in bad shape actually: if you have used most of 40 - 70 there is nothing wrong with using the earlier tests. I'd use those to make sure you keep your mental stamina and testing pace in tact while periodically redoing the newer ones so you stay fresh on the more recent LSAT trends. Good luck!

so it isn't horrible if I was to re-do the recent PT's again after a month or two in order to stay on top of the newer material? I was planning on taking about a month or so off. Get my mind right and finish up my PS as well and then start hitting it pretty hard again towards Nov/Dec and using the older PT's as my guide on new timed material and then reviewing my new tests every so often to stay on top of the new trends. Thanks for the ideas.

Some schools don't accept the Feb LSAT. You should know that.
