is it too late to revise for LNAT?

I haven't booked it and have minimal knowledge on the LNAT however I want to take the test as i want to go to a really good uni I'm not the most academic but i am willing to work hard so if it isn't too late if anyone could recommend any tips on how to revise for it, i would highly appreciate it thank you.

I sat in LNAT almost a year ago (Mid September) and scored 31, so around 73%. I started properly revising from early August, so to tell you whether you are too late for the revision it really depends on what universities you will be applying to. If you are doing Oxbridge you have to sit before late September at the latest. If not, you've got until the 15th of October. I used the ultimate LNAT guide and a couple more of tuition books, along with a personalised LNAT tutor.
Lnat requires you no legal knowledge or skills. You have to know how to read and interpret texts, think both logically and critically. I'd say if you can read questions, understand and interpret it right, can read accurately and speak fluent English you will be just fine. Regarding the essay, you can learn how to structure them and argue, rebuttal, counter-argue, give valid points, reach a conclusion. Remember to always argue then counter-argue.

Hello!
What universities did you apply to and what is your recommended essay structure?
Thank you!

I started around early August, but you should definitely start booking a slot as I'm not sure how many are left. Revision wise, just be consistent and you'll be fine.
