Hi there,

I will be honest and say that the LNAT is a very difficult test which is designed to challenge your critical thinking abilities. The multiple choice section is out of 42 and the the national LNAT average usually sits between 18-24 each year. It was apparently 22 last year, and 26-27 is about the average score for an offer holder at an LNAT university. You can check out practice questions here to see what it's like: https://lnat.ac.uk/how-to-prepare/practice-test/

Hi! I'm applying for Law at Cambridge, Durham, UCL, Nottingham and York with predicted 4A* at A-level. Definitely feeling super nervous about the LNAT. I've also heard that York does interviews for Law but am unsure if this is still the case?

Welcome to the forum. You will be required to complete an online self-assessment for York (quote from course page on website):

Self-assessment
Our problem-based learning approach is very different to other law schools, so it's important to discover whether or not it's right for you. If we're thinking of making you an offer, we'll ask you to complete an online self-assessment. This will help you understand what life is like as a law student at York, and decide if you want to move forward with your application.

Since it's your last few hours, do stay calm because that will heavily impact how you perform. I wouldn't reccomend practicing the moment before because it may panic you and just drain your energy. Take your time with the essay for planning - this is the most important advice ever. Spend 5 minutes or so on the plan. I wish you the best of luck and I hope you come out with amazing scores!

Do let us know how it went after!! :smile:
