++-!-!-!-++ LNAT - Ultimate Preparation

I'v sent off my UCAS and I'm now set on taking the LNAT

Booked in for Thursday 26th. So, what do I do? I'm looking for handy tips on what people did, ways of preparation, did anyone buy any books? anything recommended? sample LNAT from site : I shall be practising in the next few days. What else ???

I got 10 days to prepare, from 15-25 .. and then booked on 26th.

THANX :smile:

Personally I would...
say get the Mark Shepherd book for Multiple Choice preparation.

I mean there's 5 tests in there + one on the LNAT website, so if you get through all 6 in 10 days your preparation will be ideal. Also, for essay practice have a go at the essays in the back of that book but don't take too much notice of their sample ones because the style and length is nothing like LNAT want, just look at the ones on the LNAT website for help with that bit. O and read the letters to the Guardian & Independent (Times/Telegraph are getting too right wing for my liking)

I've got the 3rd one Passing the National Admissions Test for Law (LNAT) by Rosalie Hutton and Glenn Hutton. I'd personally reccommend it as it gives you tips on how to improve your style, not just practice questions (which it has lots of too). If you'd like, I'll sell you mine on eBay at a cheaper price as the book it expensive to buy new, but mine's in great condition because I only read it once. Let me know what you think! I don't need it again so I'd rather it went to someone who did! :biggrin:

Lol because she want to get some of the money back she paid on the book! I just ordered mine for 11.98 of play.com and will probably do the same!

I'd love to see some statistical evidence of just how these books/schemes actually inflate LNAT results...

It's all very interesting to see that the test which was marketed as "relatively impervious to coaching" (See Oxford, Cambridge, UCL, Bristol, UEA websites...) has become a military-like training exercise for so many students.. :frown:
