Customer Reviews

How to pass your LNAT...
I would definitely reccomend this book to anyone taking the LNAT. I've had a look at the different books available and this one is the best value for your cash, the most accessible, i.e. you can dive in at any point for a quick bit of revision, which I found ideal when the pre-test fears struck, and I got a place on my course, so it worked for me in terms of content!

Good value for the multiple-choice part
This is a very good value book for the multiple choice element of the test (although I thought one or two of the questions were needlessly ambiguous). The real reason for my 4* rating, not a 5, is that the advice on grammar at the end of the book is seriously wrong on at least two points, and contains several errors of punctuation and syntax itself, which slightly discredits the book. Personally, I doubt whether anyone who needs such basic advice on grammar would do well reading law at a top university anyway.

Preparing with this or similar books doesn't guarantee success; and a high score on the LNAT won't get you into a good university by itself. It shouldn't do you any harm if you use this book sensibly, however, and it might help you practise your technique and thus gain confidence. (I achieved a well-above average mark and got a place at my first choice university.)

Mostly good, couple of errors
The shortest and most focussed of the three LNAT books I have tried, although lacks a bit of detail in places and some of the material on grammar doesn't seem to quite make sense.

The sample MCQs were generally quite useful. A couple were a bit ambiguous but on the whole worth trying. Better explanations might have helped, but everything reads fine.

Overall certainly worth a look, but not the best of the books I cam across.
