Did you analyze the preptest to see what you are doing wrong??
I had a similar situation but I have not study for so long and I'm not taking the test anytime soon.
I took my first diagnostic in my finals week and scored a tragic 146 but I did not answer 10 questions and I had the language barrier.
I took a second preptest about two weeks later and I scored 153 , thats a 7 point jump with almost no studying but choosing the right material.
Studying with stress is not going to take you anywhere , postpone , relax and start all over again.
Don't time yourself yet ,concentrate on understanding the technique in how to solve each type of questions after you understand them , practice .
After you finish a test, check why the answer were wrongs . The lsat is about acquiring skills , not about learning a material it will take a lot of time before you see the results.
