LNAT study plan: six weeks of reading and argument
Balance passage sets, essay production, error review and realistic timed practice.
Weeks 1–2: establish patterns
Complete a timed baseline and one full essay. Classify Section A misses by scope, inference, vocabulary in context or argument structure. Identify essay weaknesses in planning, support and control.
Weeks 3–4: focused repair
- Two passage blocks each week.
- One planned essay and one timed essay.
- Delayed re-attempts with answers hidden.
- Short editing drills built from your own sentences.
Weeks 5–6: rehearse
Combine both sections under current official conditions. Practise leaving a difficult question and selecting an essay prompt promptly. Taper volume near the appointment and keep a compact checklist, not a library of model essays.
Try the questions before reviewing the answers
Read or write under time before consulting guidance. Identify where your reasoning went wrong, review the method and try a new passage or prompt.
