    Put this video on 2X:
    Basically she completed all Powerscore Books
    Raised her LSAT score 18 points in 12 weeks
    She also took a weekend prep class
    Hope this saves someone 16 minutes.

    glad to hear our learning styles are the same!! I use the same prep books too..what did you major in undergrad? A 158-160 is pretty high for a basic diagnostics test. I was a business major so didn’t have too much practice with logical reasoning and logic games. Liberal Arts majors tend to score high and find the Lsat to be less difficult. I believe that plays a factor into having a high score with only 3 months of studying. 6 months was always recommended.

      Register now! October is one of the most popular registration dates, especially since its after summer.

LSAC opened its registration so I'd recommend registering soon!
