Mastering standardized exams requires that you understand the passage and the question stem. I would take a test taking course which will focus on reading comprehension and analyzing answer choices. If you understand why you are answering questions wrong, then you will raise your score. Most people score low on standarized exams because they read too fast and miss important information.

Dont waste your time doing a million questions and repeating the same mistakes. Hire a tutor to analyze your test taking technique. Only an analysis of your technique will reveal your weakness and flaws. Its worth the money. The higher you score, the better the law school admission opportunities and in return the greater the chance of landing that top job!

The value of standardized test scores is based on the ratio of correct to incorrect answers. So, for example, if all test-takers answer a particular question correctly or incorrectly, that question doesn’t have any value in comparing test-takers to each other. These tests are meaningful only if they present a comparison of individual scores to a norm group. For this reason, most of these tests also place scores in a percentile rank, indicating how that score compared to everyone else who took that particular administration of the test.

If you need assistance improving your standardized exam scores, then try the LSAT prep book for dummies. Its not bad. I used it. http://www.amazon.com/LSAT-Dummies-Amy-Hackney-Blackwell/dp/076457194X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1284514265&sr=1-1
