Do people who got a 170+ through superstudying get lower grades than naturals?

you have no idea.

look at the AMAs. most studied over a year. multiple people took it 3 times, at least one took it 4 times. one guy got a 171 after half a year, then studied another half a year, canceled a score, studied for ANOTHER half a year, then got 177.

I went from a 157 to 173. I was above the median but nothing stellar. But like Krampusnacht said I put way less effort into LS.
EDIT: I think it's 157, but it might've been 159. I started in the high 150s.

i started at like 155 but i was -1 on RC and like -18 on logic games. just needed to learn to do those and the rest was pretty easy.
i was top 10% at my T6 after first year and then dropped a bit after that (finished like top 30%)

LMFAO @ spending 2+ years studying for the LSATTT then paying sTTTicker at some fraudlies trap school with student loans and landing some god awful 80+hr/wk biglaw job just to service your debt and $1mm+ mortgage to placate your blown out 30yo cunt wife who continues to ride the cock carousel on the side
and you'd better not make partner or the divorce is going to wipe you out and stick you with lifetime alimony.

To put a month into some perspective, I've been studying for a year now and I'm not even close to prepared for the June test, I'm hoping I'll be ready for September. And that's not weird, that's actually pretty common especially among top scorers. This test is a monster and if you don't respect it, it will make you pay.
So really, it just depends on your goals. What are you trying to do? If what you want to do requires a strong LSAT score, then I really hope you will reconsider.

I started studying for the LSAT in July of 2014 with a plan to take the test in June 2015 at the very earliest. My expectations, it turned out, were very well-managed. To be honest, I didn’t start out with this mindset because I was following sage advice—I more or less stumbled into this process with the assumption that I had a long way to go. I also knew that I would need to get a very high score on a test that a lot of really smart people take—a test that happens also to be curved. I was a tadpole in a pool teeming with very big fish. I knew I had a lot of catching up to do (or I assumed I did at least). And when I wasn't ready to take the test in June, I pushed it to October. Then I retook it in December, and once more in February (the third time was the charm!). All in all, the process took over a year and a half. But when I got into the law school of my dreams with a handsome scholarship, I saw all of that effort pay off. It's worth it to take your sweet time studying for this test.
Low and slow (like good Texas brisket). The mindset I described above translated to a “low and slow” approach. I started out studying only a few hours a week; after a month or so, I increased to 10 or so hours, then up to 15, and in the full swing of prep, I was studying about 30 hours per week while working full time (that lasted about 2 months). Once I started taking prep tests (on average, 2 per week for about 6 months), my hours spent studying per week decreased to account for the increased intensity of this kind of focused work. Instead of trying to “brute force” my prep as some students do (I often hear about folks studying more than 40 hours per week, hoping to take the test within a few months), I ramped up slowly, made sure I understood concepts deeply, and then took a huge number of LSAT prep tests (all in all, I took over 70 tests, many of them retakes). If I were to quantify the hours I spent studying in terms of scholarship offer and future employment prospects—well, let's just say that it was time very, very well-spent.

as noted above, grades have more to do with superstudying than talent.
I would expect someone who got a 170 through superstudying to get a higher gpa in LS than someone who got a 170 with no studying.

top grades requires moderate studying and high IQ. you need to study enough to know the material; lazy smart people who dont put in anywhere near enough time will do shitty. on the other hand, superstudying has diminishing returns after a certain point.
the middle of the class is filled with superstudy grinders.

True. Seminars at CCN are an easy B+.
I've seen GULC transcripts (lots of transfers just abandon their resumes and transcripts around campus), and their seminars are in fact easy A-s.
But if you're at GULC stacking up on seminars, chances are you struck out.

Hey all,
I've been studying for the LSAT for more or less than a year and I've been stuck in this 165 phase for about 7 months now. My initial diagnostic was a 143, but now I'm getting anywhere from about -3/6 on LR sections, -5/7 on RC and -0/2 on LG. I'm a slow reader and I can't seem to get inference questions right on RC. For LR, I'm also missing the inference/MBT questions the most, and some sufficient assumption questions. I've also taken all PTs from 1-71 and probably taken it more than once or twice at this point.
I've only very recently (1 month now) been going back and reviewing/re-solving the questions I got wrong, on a different day (I give it about a week).
Books I've Used:
Powerscore LR
Manhattan LR
Manhattan RC
I also took a Kaplan course before I really started studying for the LSAT.
I'm really not sure what to do at this point... If I keep reviewing the way I'm reviewing now, will my score improve? Or is a 165 my max potential and I'm maxed out now? Any other study tips will also be helpful. ALSO if someone can tell me how they study when they buy their Manhattan LR book and what's the most efficient way to study it/review it.
Thanks in advance!!

Plateauing at 164, started at a 144 in June, so I'm stoked on the improvement. My goal is to get a 170+ on the June LSAT, so I want to be PTing above a 170 really really soon. I need advice on what to do. I know a lot of you who got a 170+ score probably were stuck in a plateau for a long time. I really want to know how you handled to situation and what you did to get over the hump. Obviously, the specifics will be different for each person, so I just want to know how you personally handled the situation.
