It assesses the types of aptitudes and skills that are critical to success in tertiary Law programs. These aptitudes and skills include the ability to think critically, to analyse information, and to organise and express ideas in a clear and fluent way.</p> <p>LAT is a 2 hour, computer-based test that is held once a year. LAT is currently used for selection into <a href="https://lat.acer.edu.au/about/eligibility" target="_blank">undergraduate Law programs at UNSW Sydney</a>. Completion of the LAT enables UNSW Sydney to gain a more rounded view of a candidate’s capability to study Law. It also gives applicants an opportunity to further demonstrate their suitability for the Law program at UNSW Sydney.</p> <p><a class="btn btn-primary" href="https://lat.acer.edu.au/register">Register <i class="fa fa-chevron-right"> </i></a></p> <h2>Important dates</h2> <table class="table table-bordered table-responsive"> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row">Registrations open</th> <td>9 am AEST Monday 13 May 2024</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Standard registrations close</th> <td>5 pm AEST Friday 9 August 2024</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Late registrations close</th> <td>5 pm AEST Sunday 8 September 2024</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Reasonable adjustment applications close</th> <td>5 pm AEST Sunday 8 September 2024</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Refund requests close</th> <td>5 pm AEST Sunday 8 September 2024</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Admission Tickets released</th> <td>By 5 pm AEST Monday 16 September 2024</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row"><strong>Test date</strong></th> <td>Monday 30 September 2024</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Results available</th> <td>Late November 2024</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p> </p> <p>ACER is an independent, not-for-profit organisation.</p> </div> <div class="col-md-3 col-sm-3"> <span class="edit-entry" data-entry-id="6385" data-site-id="39"></span> <p></p> <p><div style="display:none;"> <style type="text/css">.btn-primary { color: #fff;
