Cold Diagnostic
Took my first practice LSAT. Completely blind, no studying, never looked at a test, or test questions before. I got a 150. Does this indicate anything? I've heard some places that the absolute most I could go up from this is about 20 points. I believe I took the December 2009 LSAT if that helps anything.
Could having the natural ability at getting a 150 make it possible that I'm capable of greater than 170.

My diagnostic was a 136 in July. I just scored a 159 yesterday.

its all about the amount of work you put into it... it may be a struggle to get to 159+ but if you dedicate your time and focus and manage your time properly you'll be fine

150 is a great diagnostic score
put in the work and you'll be fine with respect to scoring over 170

I did the worst (by far) on the logic games, which I hope will be the easiest to improve.

Re: Cold Diagnostic
When I was in the beginning stages of LSAT studying, I too was nervous about the 20 point "ceiling". I thought to myself that a 156 was the highest I could possibly achieve. Just be prepared to put in serious time into this. I'm taking it in December and studying full-time until then.Jgoods wrote:+1nlee10 wrote:BS.ndigiaco14 wrote:Took my first practice LSAT.
