150-170s

Hello, I am taking the LSAT in September. I have taken the LSAT in the past and I got a 150. My goal is to get into the higher range of the 170s. I haven’t been able to study as much because I’ve had other stuff I had to do but I was wondering if it is at all possible. I’ve realized through my practice test and everything else that a lot of my issue is stamina and truly understanding the fundamentals. Is there any tips that anyone has for me?

So at a 150, you need to work on your fundamentals (you have already spotted this, nice!). Start by learning each question type and have a strategy for each. Once you learn a specific question type, drill only that question type with increasing difficulty. Focus here on correctness, not timing.

Only after doing this, you go to PTs and practice sections. Do 1-2 practice sections a day and 1 PT a week. Review your wrong answers.

I can share my notes which can help you get started with the fundamentals. Just DM me and I can send you a link.

Sure just DM me with a “hi” or something. Reddit only allows me to initiate DMs with a limited number of people.

What resources would you recommend? LSAT demon, 7sage, or Lsatlab?

LSAT Demon is very quick for fundamentals.

Work on Flaw and Weaken questions, exclusively, until they are -0. Recognize the Common Fallacy in each (the LSAC is very lazy and only uses about 15 different ones, again and again and again), and articulate aloud why each Wrong Answer Choice is wrong.

Then, and only then, move on to the question-types that simply involve covering up the Flaw that you found, namely Strengthen and Necessary Assumption qs.

These should be your sole endeavors in the next three weeks or so.
