improvement from low 160 to high 160

Post by sd1111 » Thu Oct 08, 2015 3:19 am

Hi everyone,

I am going to take the Dec. test. I constantly scored low 160 recently with few times 166. I wonder those who perform very well at LSAT how did you improve from low 160 to high 160? Whats the biggest diffrence between score low 160 and high 160? I want to achieve high 160 at the end of this month and head to low 170 before the real test.

Typically, I missed -6~-8 LR from 2 sections and around10 questions with RC. I wonder whether it is the reading ability blocks my improvement both on LR and RC.

Also, I could immediately identify the correct answer choices from almost half of my missed answer choices. I wonder why I constanly lost questions like those?

Millions thanks!

If you get your RC down to where you are missing the same as a single section of LR, that is high 160s. Work harder on your RC methods. Do you read at a third grade level, what kind of reading ability struggles are you having? That could be a practice issue. Pull out some books and read for fun. Or read those dense issues that people often suggest.
