What did you think of the LNAT?

Hii,
I did my LNAT on Saturday!!! I thought the first half of the mcq section was kind of evil tbh but we power through.
The essay was okayyy i think? I did the 1st one.
My predicted is A*A*A* and A* in epq and my ps is pretty decent but ig could be a little bit better imo but like idk
Let's hope we're both successful!

Hey everyone, I sat my LNAT exam today woohoo!! Im so relieved to be done with prep and stress.
I’m still not confident in my application.. I am only predicted A*AB for Literature, biology, chemistry… My Personal statement is really strong and unique I feel like that could be the decider..
As for the LNAT, I am aiming for 30+ on the MCQ and a strong essay. I found the extracts really nice and I actually quite enjoyed reading some of them! I completely ran out of time on the essay section; I scrambled a conclusion together with 5 seconds on the clock, so unfortunately I didn’t have time for proofreading!! 😬 I chose option 2! Feel like I made some good points with a good intro.. but we’ll see what the unis think to it!!
I know I’m an idiot to applying to such aspirational Universities with my predicted grades but guys its okay theres always clearing😛😭
Im applying to KCL, Durham, Bristol, Nottingham for Law LLB and then Royal Holloway for Law with Politics with placement year!!
Why am I excited to continue my A Level journey, I feel optimistic for once, just need to work on passing chem🤭
Good luck with your applications everyone, I hope everything is going to plan 💗

Heyy!!!
I sat mine yesterday and after preparing so abstractly for so many months, it felt like being pushed into cold water before you're ready to jump. MCQ were okayish for me, a few of them I didn't have enough time to really be 100% sure so I had to pick the first best but 3 or 4 felt quite obvious? The timing was actually evil how do you expect us to be able to clock all that info in like 8 minutes 💔 💔 I did the first essay prompt but I only had 2 arguments so ion know if that's a big knockdown. My essay was more condensed I guess but i really liked all of the questions.
I also spent the literal last 5 seconds writing my final sentence. Deadass I thought I wasn't gonna make it in time and miss out a letter or something. There are probably so many scattered letters in that essay sigh.
What did you think of the passages?

Hello! KCL and Bristol barely look at personal statement so the LNAT is the main decider. Try to have a backup (Holloway is perfect!). The LNAT is genuinely a hard exam and getting a 30/42 is indeed hard but very doable with practice.

Omg no!! I do agree with you some of them felt like the answers werent even in the passage; im still raging at the one about the guy with hearing loss and how many octaves he can hear Huh?? I could not find that answer😂😂
Timing is awful, it feels like ages until youre over halfway though your time and only on question 20😬
I’m obsessively checking my UCAS and email for offers rn, I’m crashing out😂
Passages were okay! Some were tricky but others were interesting, I enjoyed the passage about grammar police😂

good luck! I have my lnat in exactly a week and I'm so stressed and scared. do you have any last minute tips and advice?

OMG... just looking through this thread now and i was cursed with that octave question too :'( Why was there some weird (but non-existent) maths?? Also, have you heard from Bristol? I have seen a few people getting law offers.

I’m yet to do my lnat - have it booked for next month - but does this mean that I’m less likely to get an offer if slots are already being taken up by people who have already done their lnat and got offers?

No def not! They have the equal consideration deadline for a reason, if you submit your application then you will have the same chance of getting in as now. You can look on freedom of information site and type in law and the different unis and date of offers and you can see they give out offers throughout the year!!

Thanks, that’s very re assuring. Are you yourself applying to Bristol too? Wish you all the best with everything

No problem, yes I applied to Cambridge (Clare college), Durham, Bristol, Nottingham and Manchester. Wishing you all the best too.

Could I ask for your stats if you don’t mind sharing

Predicted A*A*A* in History, Geography, Psychology and got 9998887777 in GCSE’s (above average in my state school), I have gotten offers from Manchester and Notts (insurance). Have you got any offers?
