December retake with no October score

[jschruhl]

I had thought October scores would be out this past Friday, or at least Monday leaving me with a good 5 weeks to review before December. Well, a hurricane happened and now everything is pushed back and severely cutting into the study time I may or may not need. I am not sure I hit my target score and really just not sure if I should just start getting back into it.

Also, now I am kind of worried I don't have enough time. I was PTing at the score I hoped to achieve under test conditions prior to the test. I seriously have no clue where to even begin, particularly because all my books are written in and what not. Do you have any advice for a retaker with about a month until the test administration? I felt really good on October until it came to games, which was more difficult than usual for me.

thanks so much.

Hey J,

Fortunately, scores should be out tomorrow. Late fees have been waived, too (see our blog post with all the updates: http://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/bid/237 ... be-delayed). As you noted, the storm messed all sorts of things up, including the likely score release this past Monday.

From a time standpoint, you've probably lost 3 days from the original point when scores would have gone out, so it's not as bad as it might look initially. By odd coincidence, I just wrote a blog aimed at people who are studying for the test again, with some advice on how to prepare when you've seen all the questions already. Check it out at http://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/bid/239 ... -questions and let me know what you think.

That's a start, and we can discuss it further also.Thanks!

Great, that actually is helpful. Would you recommend going through all the course homeworks (even though all my answers are circle in pen) and then retaking all the practice tests fresh by reprinting everything? I feel like I could kind of use your technique while reviewing the homeworks, and then retest myself with all the tests.

[Dave Killoran]

Yes, definitely! That would be a great approach. Good luck and keep us posted.

Thanks!

Hi Dave,

I was trying to access your blog about the December LSAT but its says access denied so was wondering how I could gain access? I took a class for the June LSAT and am retaking it in December.

Thank you,
Melissa

Hi Melissa,

I'm not showing any access denial issues at the moment, and the blog is public (and can be found here at: http://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/ ), so can you paste in the URL you are trying to get to?

Also, did you mean the one we just did about the October LSAT? It is here: http://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/bid/239 ... y-Happened

Please let me know if that helps. Thanks!

Thanks!

Got it to work, apparently Powerscore doesn't like Chrome. It opened in Firefox.
Thank you!
