AoA. i was wondering how to prepare for lcat. some people say that use SAT 1's book for it's preperation but others say that lcat's math is lot tougher and english easier than that of SAT. What do you say? any personal experiences, or tips? I dont really want to go to any academy and prefer doing self study. Thanks.

Yes. LCAT's Math is tougher; English is easier when put in comparison to SAT-1. If you're studying Maths at A-Levels, you would find the LCAT Math do-able. For English though, there's a Verbal section and a writing section, I guess. I don't exactly remember now. You'll be able to get the format when admission portal gets updated by 20th November this year. Keep an eye out for this page: https://admissions.lums.edu.pk/

I've already submitted the application. Can you let me know how do I find out the format? There are no past papers available for LUMS.
And moreover, it'd be very helpful if you let me know the syllabus for Maths for LUMS just like IBA has defined for it's entry test.

A friend who took the test last year says that LCAT has a similar pattern to SAT 1. Refer to this. http://sat.collegeboard.org/practice/sat-practice-questions
Urm, I'll let you know in detail when I'm sure. But basically you need to have a good grip of the Pure Mathematics syllabus of A-Levels and the basic Statistics -mean, mode, median, probability blah blah. :p

Is the pattern of SSE and that of LCAT same? Is Maths a compulsory portion? :S

I found this helpful for the format. I don't know about the syllabus though. And yes there are no pastpapers I could find either.

Hi guys! I did my FSC pre medical but now I wish to go to lums. I had 86.7% in my Matric, 76.4% in FSC. what are my chances of getting admission? Also, I want to know from where can I prepare for LCAT? How many questions will be there? Do I need to join any academy? Or self study at home? I haven't applied for Financial Aid either. what's the role of FA? A reply will be much appreciated.
