The LSDAS averages your test scores so if you do okay the first time and great the second time, the score that gets reported to the schools will only be good. Additionally, I read that when there is drastic improvement in standardized test scores, admissions officers tend to assume that the lower score reflects your actual ability and the higher score was just a fluke.
I know that part. I think that I should have mentioned that I was only referring to the GRE prep courses. That was my bad.

I hope that you do well on the LSAT. I am not going to invest in the prep course. I just don't see the point of it. I had a friend that took the course and there was hardly any improvement between her scores (she took the test twice). Even though the two tests are hardly the same, I took the Praxis this past year and scored 2 points lower than the max without prep classes and all that. I feel that it is all in my head. When I practice alone and focus, I am good to go.

Do your thing, future Esq. Let me know how you make out.
