Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a LSAT tutor for the upcoming August exam. I’m currently scoring in the mid-160s after studying for 2 months and aiming to push into the 170+ range over the next month.

I’m looking for someone who:

• Is genuinely invested in helping students improve, not just giving surface-level explanations
• Can help diagnose and fix inconsistency in Logical Reasoning under timed conditions
• Proven record of helping students already in the mid-160s break into the 170+ range
• Focuses on reasoning process and error patterns, not just content review

I’m a very serious student and planning to dedicate several hours every day this month to prep.

If you’re a tutor or have recommendations, I’d really appreciate it.

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share where I’m at with the LSAT and ask for advice because I feel a bit stuck and honestly pretty discouraged.

I started studying for the LSAT on May 1, right after graduating college a year early. I went into it pretty seriously from the start and have been putting in consistent, focused study time since then.

My diagnostic was a 153. Since then, I’ve been studying hard and have worked my way up to the mid 160s on practice tests, which I know is solid progress. But the breakdown is uneven and that’s where I’m running into issues.

Reading Comprehension has actually been my strongest section. I usually miss around 2–4 questions, sometimes fewer. I think my background in political theory helps a lot with dense passages and argument structure, so RC has felt fairly natural for me.

Logical Reasoning is the problem. It just is not clicking.

I’ve been grinding LR for hours a day for about 2 months now and I’m not seeing consistent improvement. My scores in LR vary a lot. On a good section I might go -3, but on worse ones I can drop to -8. That variability is what’s really discouraging me, because it feels like I don’t actually *understand* what’s improving and what isn’t.

For prep, I’ve been using LSAT Demon pretty heavily, I finished the PowerScore LR Bible, and I’ve also been watching YouTube breakdowns and explanations to try to patch gaps. I’m reviewing thoroughly, but it still feels like the patterns aren’t sticking in the moment when I’m actually doing timed sections.

My goal is a 170+ because I’m aiming for top law schools in California, and I know RC alone won’t carry me there. I just feel like LR is the bottleneck that’s holding everything back, even though I’m putting most of my effort into it.

Has anyone else dealt with LR just not “clicking” after months of focused drilling? Did something specific finally make it break through for you? I’m wondering if I should change how I’m drilling, slow down, or completely rethink my approach.

Any advice would really help, I am truly open to anything at this point with one month remaining to the August exam
