Retaking test for lsat preparation

[bdg]

I am currently making my way through the latest test prep book of past LSAT exams for the second time. The first time I did this was when I was studying for the September exam (which I made a 166 on). During this time I did not memorize the questions or even thoroughly review the test. However, during my second run through the book, around 1 1/2 months later, my scores are constantly really high. I think I made a 177 on my last exam. I have worked my way through an older LSAT prep test book in between these two times of taking the newest book.

I am worried that my scores are heavily exaggerated because I have already seen the exam. Can you confirm this?

Thanks for your help,

Hey Bdg,

Just take the most recent practice test that you've never seen before. That'll tell you right there. I couldn't say definitively in terms of the ones you have seen, but yes, you would expect some serious inflation.
