Hey guys,

Unfortunately my MPRE score expired and I have to retake. What is a reasonable number of hours to "bill" for MPRE studying? I don't want to look like an idiot by billing too many hours to the MPRE.

I was thinking 15-20 hours?

Just put the hours that you studied... as long as you pass, no one will care or read your non-billable time entries.

Edit: If you do plan to study 15-20 hours, that seems like a lot for just the MPRE, but go for it (better to over study than fail).

I can't imagine spending 15-20 hours in the MPRE. I spent about 8 hours the first time around and way over-studied.

Bill however many you spend on the test. No one's paying much attention to your non-billables anyway, so long as your hours for the month are acceptable.

Don't care how many you bill, but really don't spend more than five hours studying for it.

It takes 3 hours to study for it.

I wouldn't log more than 20 hours for it.
