Hey question :

I need 85, what raw score should I aim? I just scored 35/60 on a kaplan test.

Also, which do you think has better questions : kaplan or barbri ?

Thanks and best of luck

I need an 85 too. I think I read somewhere that comes to a 32/50.

I feel like people are taking this test a lot more seriously than I am. Oh well.

how do you know what score you need?

[inquisitivelady]

Tomorrow is the exam guys, just hoping for the best. Will let you know how I felt and ask how everyone felt about it, as soon as I finish. As of now, I'm just reviewing the ABA model rules. Too tired for questions.

Apparently ear plugs are "prohibited in the test room" and possession may mean "the examinee's score will be invalidated." Ditto food and water. What the fuck, LSAC.

[blattblatt]

anyone know how many questions correct one needs to pass in CA (86)?

For reference, median is about 100.

GL tomorrow, all!

My thoughts exactly...

what a shitty way to spend a saturday

[ymmv]

Well that was way, way harder than the practice tests I took.

The MPRE tickets for people taking it at my location had the wrong address. So we were all hanging out in a cramped hallway until the proctors realized it was 8:30am and no one was there.

heres hoping I don't have to do that shit again

[ymmv]

Yea, that was far more difficult than I anticipated.

Oh well, worst case is that I/we have to just go through this bullshit again.

When do scores get released?

~5 weeks

Guys that exam was pretty difficult. I have absolutely NO IDEA how I did. Pretty nervous about the results to be honest. It was also hard to tell which ones were the experimental and which ones were not.

"olol the mpre is easy"

fucking glad I took 7 practices exams.

I'm assuming/hoping those include the extra-bullshit ones that were definitely not covered in any of the prep materials.

Dudes, you have no idea how relieved I am to read that others thought it was hard too (though I’m definitely not glad it was hard for a group of us). I did so many practice tests, & a lot of those questions were waaaay more convoluted than the typical questions. Instead of just one other issue thrown in as a distractor, there were like, four others. After I was done I went & checked some of the MRPC & STILL couldn’t figure out the answer. WTF. I could not tell which ones were the experimentals, & there WERE extra-bullshitty questions that weren’t covered by ANY of the prep materials fo sho (& I did practice Qs fm Barbri, Themis, & Kaplan, b/c I’m a weirdo).

[bsktbll28082]

Yep, I also have no idea how I did. Probably only felt confident on a 1/3 of the questions. For prep I: watched the Barbri video multiple times, outlined the video, took a PR class, and did half of the Themis practice question sets.

I have similar feelings as everyone here. No idea. Didn't know many for sure answers. I'll probably get an 87 or something and have to retake November.

If you get an 87, you are good for every state.

Although I feel the same as you, that I will miss my state by a few pts.

Ahh yeah, I was thinking 89 for CA for some reason, not 86.

if you're taking practice mpres, all i can say is good luck on the bar.
