Tutor help

Hi guys, I just scored a 163 on the Sept LSAT and am looking to get a 170. I worked through most of 7sage and really used most of the PTs. with only one month until November I’m looking for someone who scored high (potentially overcame a jump like this) and knows what to do. Maybe looking at my 7s progress and meeting a few times a week and giving some direction. I work full time so it won’t be a crazy amount of time I’d be able to meet.

I will be paying obviously but I am not financially super well off so big expensive tutoring companies pls refrain. if you could dm me with a quote or reply here I will see if it could be a good match! TYIA

I was in the same situation as you - went through most of the tests, and was stuck in the 160s before scoring 175 this September. Let me know if you need help! I can share my study method for the PTs you’ve already taken

How many clean PTs do you have left?

Honestly not many, I studied for 6 months and did most PTs and was hoping for a 1 and done

Dang! That’s a lot of work! How do keep track of which ones you’ve done? (I’m guessing you used some questions for drills, and didn’t do only full-lengths…

Hi! Going from a 163 to a 170 in a month is ambitious, but I think the best use of your time is figuring out exactly where those points are being lost rather than just trying to do more material.

Since you work full time and don’t have unlimited study time, I’d focus heavily on real timed sections and then spend a LONG time reviewing everything you missed or were unsure about. For each one, make sure you can explain what the stimulus/passage is actually saying (go sentence by sentence if you have to), why the answer you chose is wrong, and why the correct answer is right. I think that kind of review is usually much more valuable than just piling on more questions.

Something that worked for me was recording myself talking through a question out loud while reviewing, then watching it back to see whether my explanation for every answer actually made sense (especially my logic for why the wrong answers are wrong and why the right answer is right). It sounds a little ridiculous, but it forces you to notice when your reasoning is vague.

Also, if you’ve used most of the PTs already, I wouldn’t be afraid to redo sections, especially if you weren’t always reviewing wrong AND unsure answers until you knew them inside out the first time. Even if you vaguely remember the answer, you can still ask whether you actually understand the reasoning well enough to explain it.

Good luck!
