Good luck to anyone who hasn't done their LNAT!
LNAT Date taken- October 12th 2020
How it went: honestly never know with LNAT multiple choice but fingers crossed. The essay qs were harder than expected so I took quite a bit of time choosing the least hardest but I persevered even though the unis I'm applying for LNAT don't consider the essay too much.
Applied to: KCL, LSE, Southampton (offer received AAB) , Warwick (offer received AAA), City (offer received BBC)

Hi guys,
I have my LNAT exam booked for the 19th December, any tips or advice?
Do you guys remember the essay questions you had? I'm doing essay practise and would really appreciate more titles to answer, especially if they were considered difficult.

How it went: I thought the passages were easier to read and grasp hold of compared to others I practiced but the options for answers were all very similar so idk how I did, finished section A with 2mins to check over them so I’m unsure :// the essay questions were alright I think, much better than I expected, it was around 500 words so quite short :/
My school are still doing my references but I want my application sent off ASAP😣
Applied to: KCL, QMUL, SOAS, Brunel and Royal Holloway

How it went: honestly have no idea how well I did for the MC section (my marks fluctuate a lot), also I didn't have enough time to complete my essay and was cut mid-sentence (I wrote about 550 words). Have been thinking about this non-stop, I wonder how much this will affect my holistic application. I'd say the other components of my application are quite pleasant, I'm an international student from HK, my PGs translate to A*A*A* and I think my personal statement was finely written as well. I'm really worried that my LNAT will screw me up.

I just had mine today, 23 November and I honestly don’t know how to feel. Section A was somehow the answers were pretty similar and I thankfully answered Evrytging however I really don’t know how I did. For the essay part I gave a basic answer, the options were hard to come up with answers on the spot.
How long did it take you guys to get offers from your university’s after the LNAT

Hi,
Had my LNAT Thursday . The multiple choice questions were ok, all the passages were really long though when I was expecting a mixture. There was only 1 or 2 that I found really difficult.
The essay questions were great! I even remembered some statistics so I was very happy with that. Although I only managed to SPAG check about half the essay😕 but I did try to keep track as I was going along
I applied to KCL LSE and UCL for LNAT unis

How it went: the multiple choice was ok but, I had no time to review any of the answers at the end. The essay started okay but, I struggled to choose and plan a suitable question and thus, miscalculated the time and was cut of mid sentence in my conclusion. I have no idea of how well it actually went.
Applied to: KCL, Bristol, Royal Holloway, Bath and UWE.
Good luck to anyone who is yet to sit the exam!

Good luck to the people doing the LNAT!
Date Taken - October 14th, 2020
How it went - I actually enjoyed the essay, managed to form a coherent structure and argument and it turned out fine. However, I'm very worried about my multiple choice question performance. Won't say anything else but by golly these were hard this year. The unis I'm applying to also expect pretty high results so we'll see in how it turned out in January.
Applied to - Oxford, Queen's (conditional offer, AAA), UEA (conditional offer, BBB), Birbeck (conditional, AAB) and SOAS.

sat my LNAT today on the 16th of december! applied to glasgow, edi, strathclyde, and dundee. feel like i found it too easy and idk if that’s good or bad. feeling good about the essay
I just sat my LNAT today date: December 19thI really enjoyed the essay question I wrote about 650- 700 words, I went in an odd direction with it but I'm pleased overall. The multiple choice is hard to tell, there were 2 passages that I found extremely difficult and I had a couple of guesses. So it will be interesting to see what I end up getting in that.Applied to: Glasgow, Sussex (2 offers received there) and Brighton.
LNAT Yesterday: 19th December
Multiple choice: was quite decent, a few guesses but the extracts were understandable. Nowhere near as hard as the arbitio practice test
Essay: I was lucky, the essay I did was similar to a practice essay I've done before, so it went quite well, and I had a lot to say.
Applied to: KCL (Politics, Philosophy and law), Cambridge (Philosophy- interviewed), Exeter (philosophy) , Warwick (Politics, philosophy and law BA) and St Andrews (Philosophy)

Hi! Here's my LNAT experience.

Applied to: Oxford (interviewed), Durham, Glasgow. Also applied to Leeds (offer of one A at advanced higher) and Newcastle (offer of AA)
