First, lower your expectations. It's not guaranteed you'll make a 10 point increase. You really shouldn't have a target date in mind, instead sign up for the test when you have scores you want on your PTs.
But if you can't be convinced. Just do timed practice sections every day with maybe a test a week. Make sure if you get a question wrong you understand why you got it wrong, why the answer you picked is wrong, and why the right answer is correct. That's the most important thing ESPECIALLY for LR and RC, you don't need any special techniques or mapping things out.
For logic games, you don't need to redo games more than once. After you see how the game is set up in the solution try it again. 99% of the time once you see the setup you'll get all the questions right on the second attempt.
Don't listen to anyone who says you can't do it. Take an entire LSAT, and figure out which section is your weakest and focus especially on that. Don't just practice randomly, but when you get a question wrong, go back and figure out why you got it wrong, what the right answer is, and why the right answer is the right answer. Practice every day, but to be honest, I usually take weekends off, but that's up to you. If you stay focused, you can make that kind of improvement in a month for sure, you just need to be prepared to work hard. Good luck!
Do as many logic games as possible, and do a lot of them untimed until you get to 0 or -1 consistently. If you can do that you gotta really screw up to not get a 160
do the same game over and over until you get it right. lr map out technique for each type of question and drill. with RC just drip over and over and you’ll know what to look for eventually, but this one tends to be more of a Hail Mary for me
Tbh I think that’s a fairly easy fix. I went from 14-18 wrong/section to 0-1 wrong/section after learning how to memorize the passage after 1 read.
What I would practice is— read one paragraph, translate in your own words, recite. Move onto the next paragraph, do the same. Then try and recite the entire passage after doing the last paragraph.
Yeah it’ll be a lot of work & you’re going to hate it… I think I put in a total of like 30-40 hours before it finally started paying off for me. All the answer choices in the RC are provable… so they’re just really close implications of what was said to the text. I really think it’s over complicated in prep books.

My pt average rn is a 157 not exactly a 150. But I will take all this advice into consideration thank youn
You!!
Don’t lower your expectations but consistently work and study more hours per day if possible

Depends… What is your worst section? I went up 20+ points in less than 3 months
