I'm very busy with work and school. What is the best way to score at least a one 160 on the LSAT?

I took a load of classes and scores high on the LSAT. What is your LSAT goal?
You can nail the LSAT if you work on the following:
(1) Time management. Work with a timer during all practice tests.
(2) Develop a sophisticated strategy. A Princeton Review course is not for the very top test takers as the advice is too simple and the methods not conducive to scores deep into the 99th percentile. Your strategy should be custom to your strengths and weaknesses and should evolve as you analyze your practice test mistakes. If you are not a very top test taker follow the Princeton Review method and shoot for a 97th percentile score.
(3) Purchase the PowerScore books (there are two PowerScore bibles).
(4) Purchase as many real LSAT tests as possible. Take a practice test every day, preferably at the same time as your real test. Simulate testing conditions.
(5) Cut every single problem you miss on your daily test out of the LSAT book and save it. Review these missed problems often. Analyze the missed problems for trends. Refer back to the PowerScore books on problem types you have issue with. You must find where your mistakes are and correct them.
(6) Keep taking more and more tests with extreme focus on finding and correcting your errors. The mistakes in your thinking are there and with hard work you will find and correct them.

I took Kaplan and my classmates took Powerscore and we ended up in the same school. I dont think the courses make much difference. some people are just good at taking standardized exams.

powerscore helps you to learn the psychology behind to question which is important to scoring high on the LSAT.
An LSAT of 160 will get you into any of the 3rd or 4th tier schools, so you probably dont even need to take a prep course.

POwerscore is great for those pre-testing at 160 or better and who want to gain 5-8 points to get into top law schools.
Powerscore course are more advanced than Kaplan or Princeton Review and help you polish your already strong skills.
Kalpan is for everyone, Powerscore will help the advanced test takers.
