What LNAT score does King's require?
King's current Law LLB requirements page does not publish a minimum, average, target or weighting. It says all applicants must take the LNAT by 31 December.
Who must take the LNAT for King's Law?
King's says the requirement applies to Home and Overseas applicants. Some Overseas applicants without an LNAT centre in their country or within a reasonable distance may receive individual dispensation.
Margin is independent LNAT practice. It cannot predict King's admissions decision.
Does King's use the LNAT essay?
King's public Law LLB requirements page does not state whether or how it uses Section B. LNAT says participating universities receive both the score and essay; that does not establish King's policy.
When are King's 2027 LNAT deadlines?
Sit the LNAT on or before 31 December 2026. King's says you may take it before or after submitting your application, which must arrive before the UCAS January Equal Consideration deadline. Check UCAS for the exact application date.
LSE Law is another 31 December sitting, and it normally leaves the essay out of the decision.
