Properly reviewing wrong answers

Hello, I’ve been studying for the LSAT for about 1.5 months and I’m trying to figure out what is the proper way to review. After I take a PT or drill, I look at my wrong answers and try to guess the correct answer again, then write down why I thought it was the original answer, why it actually doesn’t make sense, and how the actual answer I later guessed fits the question.

My main question is if this is the right way to review. This makes the review a question-by-question basis, where I realize that I got it wrong because I overlooked a change in the verb, or the answer choice was too extreme. When I get the questions wrong for those kind of reasons, should I be trying to figure out a method of correctly answering that question type, or continue in the same way?

Open to any advice, especially from those who scored 170+ on an official test!!
