1. What is Law Admission Test 2025?

The Law Admission Test 2025 is the official entrance exam for admission into the five-year LL.B. (Hons) program in Pakistan. It was introduced in 2018 by the Supreme Court of Pakistan to ensure merit and transparency. Since then, the Higher Education Commission (HEC) has conducted LAT for all aspiring law students. In other words, if you want to study law in Pakistan, you must first pass LAT.

2. How Often Does HEC Conduct LAT?

HEC organizes the Law Admission Test 2025 multiple times every year, so students have more than one opportunity to qualify. Usually, the test takes place three times a year—once in January, again in May, and finally in August or September. Consequently, you do not need to worry if you miss one session, because another session will follow a few months later.

7. Roll Number Slip & Test Day Instructions

HEC issues roll number slips approximately one week before the test. You can easily download your slip from 👉 HEC LAT Portal. In addition, HEC also sends an email or SMS notification.

On test day, you must bring:

• Your roll number slip
• Your original CNIC or B-Form
• A copy of your paid challan

Without these documents, you cannot enter the test center.

8. Law Admission Test 2025 Results

HEC usually releases the answer key within one week of the test. This allows students to check their expected marks. The final result is announced in about 30–40 days. You can log in to 👉 HEC LAT Results and download your official scorecard.

9. Student Insights

Students generally find LAT easier than other entry tests. Most universities simply require you to pass the test with at least 50 marks; they do not use your LAT score for merit calculation. Consequently, the main goal is just to qualify.

Many students say that the MCQs are simple, while the essay and personal statement help you demonstrate your writing ability. If you prepare basic English, Urdu, Pakistan Studies, and Islamiat, you can pass without difficulty.
