Discouraged need advice

I was PTing an average of 160, 162, 165 on all the practice tests for a whole month straight before the November test, it was my first lsat but I honestly didn't feel nervous when taking the test. I just scored a 156 and I'm just in shock. Are the Practice tests not an accurate reflection of the actual scoring? Was it the curve? Did I just have an off day? Anyone else in my shoes before? I am going to retake in January and also another question how late is that to apply in this cycle?

    Also to add, my smarta$$ literally took all the recent practice Tests so I guess I have to retake ones I've done before to practice now

    I had the same experience! I scored way lower than what I was getting on PTs

    same story as mine, PTing in 164's... Oct LSAT score at 156, finished all PT's

    I'm just redoing games for now. I realized that I forgot almost all games from 1-25

    I think I was really thrown off by the interface of LSAT's testing software. I was unable to highlight and underline the sentences properly. Also, my proctors asking me to adjust my camera a few times played a huge role in throwing me off mentally. I hope I can figure out a way to deal with that before the January test. What do you think your issues were?
