Hey,

Sorry for LNAT worries - this is a bit of a tough one but it may be a shout to diversify the example exams that you are sitting. Try practing the example exams that are available on the LNAT website. Or on other platforms. If you have a member of staff at school who knows about LNAT, maybe they can coach you through a paper.

But outside of just sitting papers, make sure that you are keeping up-to-date on current affairs in the news, as that will also help you out. Also, depending on the university you are applying for, you may also need to work on your essay portion of the LNAT. So make sure you are giving equal time to both parts of the paper.

I hope this helps.

Hey, would you say the Lnat sample papers on their website are of similar difficulty to the actual exam? and ive ran out of questions as ive done all the lnat sample questions and the ultimate lnat guide..do you have any other website suggestions I could use?

I am afraid I don't know the answer to your first question. The general consensus seems to be that the LNAT sample papers are the closest comparison especially considering they have past papers up on their page: 2010 Past Paper. Some students have said the prep textbooks are harder than the actual LNAT, I am not sure if that is true.

In terms of more papers, you can find plenty more in a quick google search. Here are some that I found:
