The University of Oxford is one of the most prestigious universities in the world and their Law program is particularly competitive. The LNAT (Law National Aptitude Test) is used by Oxford, along with several other universities, to help them select students for their Law programs.

Oxford however also places high value on the Section B essay scores. These are not scored as such but given a rank from best to worst compared to other applicants essays.
Why Are Oxford LNAT Scores So High?
The LNAT score for Oxford is higher than most other universities because:
- High Competition: Oxford's Law program tends to attract a very large number of highly qualified applicants. Higher LNAT score requirements can help the university narrow down the pool of candidates.
- Academic Rigor: Oxford's Law program is known for its academic rigor. A high LNAT score can demonstrate a candidate's ability to handle the challenging coursework.
- Demonstration of Skills: The LNAT is designed to assess skills that are important for the study of Law, including comprehension, interpretation, analysis, and argumentation. A high score on the LNAT can demonstrate a strong command of these skills.
However, it's important to note that while a high LNAT score can improve an applicant's chances of admission, it's just one part of the application. Oxford also considers factors like academic performance, personal statements, references, and performance in interviews when making admission decisions.
LNAT Is Not A High Scoring Test
It's important to remember that LNAT is a very difficult test and average scores range around the 50% mark. So when approaching the test it is important not to become disheartened by your score if you are used to scoring very highly in your school exams.
Rather you should concentrate only on scoring above the average mark usually required by the universities you have applied to.
