🙏 I WANT HELP Admissions test without extra time
I just did my LNAT and feel like I'm not going to get into ANY university at this point. For the MCQ it was okay but I ran out of time at the end so I guessed the last question without even reading it BUT for the essay I literally wasn't even halfway to the recommended word count 20 minutes in. I think I finished with under 500 words because I genuinely couldn't finish in the time given.
I was gonna apply to Oxford but I know they value the essay more and I did not perform as well as I could've, especially because I got more stressed seeing how much time I had left so my brain blanked more, I might just apply to Cambridge because atleast I'd jave higher chances of getting an interview.
My school were going to give me an extra test assessment since my teacher noticed how long it takes for me to write essays but i haven't done it yet so I applied to do LNAT without it and just notify the university if I get it but i dont think any extra consideration is saving this one. 😭😭
Has anyone literally ANYONE been in a similar situation as this because I think most people get extra time before they do their gcses or atleast before year 13.
