Don't worry about it too much, it's very subjective how people find the exam and it definitely was harder this year in my opinion. They mark it on a curve so all you need to do is get slightly above the average. Wait till February and for now focus on other aspects of your application/A levels. Well done for doing it! :smile:

I did my LNAT yesterday too, I feel like I’ve flunked it as well. Section A was hell, the passages are easier to read than the ones on Arbitio but the questions are less, if not, equally difficult. I hope my section B can compensate for the lower score in section A. lol good luck anyway😭😭

Same! The topics are easy and passages are easier to read but the questions confused me more than the ones on arbitro so I didn’t have time to finish and answered randomly at the end :frown:. My essay was okay so I’m just praying it balances out.

plus the test center was swarmed with truck drivers who literally talk during the exam and have their phone out. Coupled with other LNAT people frantically typing and clicking, kind of made it harder to think and concentrate. But I guess we will see lmao

I'm sure you've done better than expected!! I found some of the passages a lot more abstract than the simulation test and it was a lot harder to use the process of elimination for some of the questions. This year was hard so I bet the score will reflect that on the bell curve
