The LNAT or National Admissions Test for Law, is an admissions aptitude test that was adopted in 2004 by eight UK university law programmes〔(Education: New entry test for law students ), BBC News, UK.〕 as an admissions requirement for home applicants. The test was established at the leading urgency of Oxford University as an answer to the problem facing universities trying to select from an increasingly competitive pool with similarly high A-levels. With effect from its second year the LNAT is required for UK and overseas applicants alike. There are now nine participating law schools and hundreds of test centres worldwide. ==Format== The test taker is allotted 2 hours to complete an LNAT essay〔(LNAT essay ).〕 and 42 multiple choice questions aimed at measuring reading comprehension and logical reasoning skills. The reading portion contains ten sets of between two and five questions based around a respective short reading passage. The questions typically ask for terms and arguments from the reading to be defined by inference. The essay lasts for 40 minutes and involves the candidate answering one of three available essay questions. The questions are open-ended topics typically about student related issues or other well familiar subject matter. The reading section is scored out of 42 and the essays are individually marked by proctors at the respective universities. The Universities currently using the LNAT are: *University of Birmingham *University of Bristol *Durham University *University of Glasgow *King's College London *SOAS, University of London (students offering BTEC only) *University of Nottingham *University of Oxford *University College London *NUI Maynooth (mature entry only) *IE University, Spain 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National Admissions Test for Law」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
