@madollyy: I focus on bringing your GPA up as much as possible in the last semester because once you graduate you cannot change that. So don't study for the LSAT next semester if you think that would impair your ability to get straight A's.
As for LSAT studying, I would recommend LSAT Demon (ik controversial), the Loophole, and Reading Comp Hero.
