Did I mess up my LNAT?

Was it a title that provoked you to take a stand on one side? I don't know even with them I tend to put a balanced argument (but perhaps favour one side by refuting the points I make for the side I don't agree with), but personal opinion and evaluation I tend to put in the conclusion.

Sounds like you've done fine though, if you're confident. I never leave exams very confident really, always think I've messed up somehow. Ironic that I thought this one went okay haha

Not in Law as you're supposed to argue one side, you don't go into a court room and argue both sides do you

Speaking as someone with a Law degree and currently doing my TC I can state with certainty you need to be able to understand and explain both sides of an argument.

The best way to get good marks in essays in your degree is to consider both sides in depth. If you argue all one way and make a cursory 2 line reference to other points of view you'll struggle to get above a 3rd/low 2:2

Like I said in my post above I argued one side as in Law that's what you're set out to do, either for or against.

The LNAT isn't just for law. And whether you go into an courtroom and argue both sides isn't the point - essays are supposed to be balanced. Also, in court you also have to anticipate what the otherside might argue, so it's good to show you can think of that stuff------

Er.... we are talking about an essay we all desperately typed out in a panic-stricken 40 minutes. not a degree-standard essay!

I take law a-level and we've always been taught to give a balanced argument - personal opinion and affiliation saved for conclusion.

I know how to structure an essay.

It was just the LNAT where I decided not to based on a lot of advice from here.

It still worked for me.

That's usually how you do any essay whether its Law or English.

So was your LNAT essay thoroughly balanced?

What was your question, out of curiosity?

How do you mean it worked for you? Have you received offers based on it?

Don't the people who wrote/manage/charge extortionate fees claim the LNAT shows aptitude for degree?

Birmingham University is a LNAT Uni, non?

I don't give a **** how well I did in LNAT as long as I got the offer I wanted from the Uni.

Then why did you change it on the LNAT?
