I don't think it's really being considered this year - it wasn't even in the results report!




I know of one uni actually using SJT (I think its Edinburgh though I'm not 100% sure) and Leicester say they may use it as an interview station

No problem. :smile: I was quite happy but there are lots of people that have done much better than me :smile:

*Cough* :colondollar: :lol:

Nothing, I just don't like them...I don't like anything tbh, except complaining :colonhash: :lol: You're kinda famous on TSR, so I guess you have a valid reason for making one :tongue:

Just wondering, as you're the only person that seems to have done it here! :biggrin: What does the test comprise of? Why isn't it instant marked like UKCAT?


It's just verbal reasoning/critical thinking stuff, mainly.

The LNAT comprises two parts: an MCQ section (/42) and a forty minute essay.

For the multiple choice, there are twelve argumentative passages with 3 or 4 accompanying questions for each. Examples of the questions would be like the following: "what is the writer's main point?"; "what can be inferred from the second paragraph about X?"; "which of the following is not identified as supporting the writer's point on Y?", etc.

The essay section is pretty straightforward, and usually there's a fair mix of accessible questions - you get a choice of three and it's supposed to be 500-600 words long. The questions don't tend to rely on legal knowledge at all, although certainly for one of mine an understanding would have helped.

I have no idea why you don't get the scores instantly. I suppose it's a very different situation with medicine; nearly all medical schools require the UKCAT in some form, whilst only a handful of law schools ask for the LNAT. Personally I can't see why we do not receive our scores sooner after the test, but meh.

:teehee:

Why? They're great for finding something... Like the American who made one, I asked about American Unis, the Russian about the language, some really work out well!

TSR Famous :rofl: I had a quiet time but I thought what the heck, I may as well post when I'm on my phone doing nothing :lol: or doing something boring...

I've got loads of homework for tomorrow :colonhash: bloody great.

Look forward to hearing about it :biggrin: well I have to get an offer first :tongue: how do you have so many? Can't find any decent ones around my area. I hate it mainly because I don't think I'm good at it :redface:


Fair enough :smile: I'll ask her about it if I ever see her on here. A2s are alright so far, not doing great but not going too bad. How about you?

You should make one. "I'm a med applicant, ask me anything". I'm really bad at thread making, I hardly get much views haha. In other news, my alterego seems to be more popular than me, haha.

You are unique. Make a thread entitled "Ask a wannabe polygot something" or something similar :h:

I'm on the same boat really, just trying to keep positive to work things through. :smile: I'm trying to think of a topic to write for a history essay competition and planning my gap year. :biggrin:
How typical is this, I got an English essay to do over half term, I didn't do it (obviously because I'm so rebellious). So come Monday, she asks for it...I tell her I "lost the sheet", so I get until Friday. It gets to Thursday night and I debate over whether or not I should do it, I decide I should. So I spend ages on this essay and finish it feeling quite proud. Next day...SHE DOESN'T ASK FOR IT. SHE FORGETS. Karma probably :tongue:

(Didn't want to just give it in because that'd be unfair on my friend who didn't do it and is the only other person in the class) :lol:
