The Law Admission Test (LAT) is an entry requirement for undergraduate law degrees at UNSW Sydney. The LAT test is a written assessment developed by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) in collaboration with UNSW. It evaluates skills such as critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and the ability to express ideas clearly - key competencies for success in law studies.All domestic applicants aiming to enrol in an undergraduate Bachelor of Laws double degree at UNSW Sydney are required to sit the LAT.

For 2025, the LAT is scheduled for Tuesday, 30 September 2025. Key registration dates are:​ Registrations open: 9:00 AM AEST, Monday, 12 May 2025 Standard registrations close: 5:00 PM AEST, Monday, 11 August 2025 Late registrations close: 5:00 PM AEST, Monday, 8 September 2025​ You can register online through the official ACER LAT website: https://lat.acer.edu.au/

Your LAT score is considered alongside your academic results (such as ATAR or equivalent) in the selection process for UNSW Law programs. If your LAT performance isn't as strong as desired, you might consider alternative pathways:​ Re-sitting the LAT: You can take the LAT again in subsequent years; UNSW will consider your highest score. Internal Program Transfer: If you're already enrolled in another program at UNSW, you may apply for an internal transfer to Law, subject to meeting specific academic requirements. Other Institutions: Exploring law programs at other universities that may have different admission criteria.​ It's advisable to consult with academic advisors to discuss the best course of action based on your individual circumstances.

Our classes are conveniently held online through the widely-used and reliable platform, Zoom. This enables us to reach students from all locations and provide a comfortable learning environment from your home.

No, you shouldn’t. Preparing for the Law Admission Test (LAT) requires time to build and refine critical thinking and persuasive writing skills—skills that cannot be developed overnight. Attending a class closer to the exam date often leaves little time to absorb the material, practice effectively, and improve. Instead, starting your preparation early allows you to learn at a steady pace, identify and address your weaknesses, and practice extensively under realistic conditions. LAT Academy’s programs are designed to give you the time and guidance needed to approach the exam with confidence. Early preparation is key to success!

Securing your spot for the LAT Academy Premium Masterclass involves a mandatory 15-minute screening call. During this call, we'll have a chat about you - your interests, reasons for pursuing law, current skill set, and your existing preparation for the LAT. This helps us understand your needs better and ensures that our Masterclass is a good fit for you.

To prepare for the screening call, take some time to think about your motivations for pursuing law, the skills you currently have that will aid in your LAT preparation, and the specific areas you're hoping to improve through our Masterclass. This conversation is also a great opportunity for you to ask any questions you might have about the program, so feel free to jot down any queries in advance.

You will be informed during the call itself. We are able to assess your suitability for our program during our conversation and we will let you know immediately. This allows us to give you real-time feedback and provide clarity on the next steps.

We'll ask about your understanding of the LAT, your previous experiences with test preparation, and what you hope to gain from our program. The discussion will be fairly informal and aimed at understanding your unique needs.
