Free LNAT practice test
The law admissions test used by Oxford, UCL and other UK law schools.
The LNAT has two sections. Section A is 42 multiple-choice questions on 12 argumentative passages in 95 minutes. Section B is an essay: you choose one of three questions and have 40 minutes.
This practice test follows that format with 12 original passages. Section A is marked with an explanation for every answer; Section B gives you three essay questions, a timer, a word count and notes on what a strong essay does.

How to use this practice test
- Sit each section with the timer on, in one go, without notes or a calculator.
- Submit to see how many you got right and which topics cost you marks.
- Read the worked solution for every question you missed — and for any you got right by guessing.
- Redo the missed questions a few days later without looking at the solutions.
