LNAT Structure and Format

The LNAT consists of two sections:

 

Section 1: Multiple-Choice Reasoning

  • Time: 60 minutes
  • Format: Approximately 42 questions
  • Content: This section assesses your ability to think critically and logically. Questions cover a range of topics, including:
    • Logical reasoning
    • Verbal reasoning
    • Quantitative reasoning

Section 2: Essay Writing

  • Time: 40 minutes
  • Format: One essay question
  • Content: You will be presented with a stimulus, such as a quotation, a piece of text, or a graph, and asked to write an essay in response. The essay should demonstrate your ability to:
    • Analyze and evaluate information
    • Construct a clear and coherent argument
    • Express your ideas effectively in writing

It's important to note that the LNAT is designed to test your ability to think independently and critically, rather than your knowledge of specific subjects.
