I know that RC passages can be ambiguous but still provide you with all of the information that you need in order to answer each question, but I still get tripped up on readings that use overly scientific words that I’m not familiar with.

if you’ve been able to get over this difficulty by being able to answer questions well while not necessarily understanding each concept or word within the reading, how have you been able to connect the dots?

When I say this, I’m not referring to not knowing certain words. I’m referring to things such as medical concepts that might use words interchangeably in the readings and do not directly identify them.

I haven’t taken my LSAT yet, but I will in August. I’ve studied for about a month now and I’m only scoring a 160 on my diagnostics (I am aiming for a 170). I want to apply to law schools by late October or early November and by the time I get my August score back, I won’t be able to register for September. Should I sign up for September now or should I be more optimistic and register for October if I’m in a pickle?
