BarBri Bar Review Hangout - July 2015 Exam Forum

[ReachTheBar79]

I have to wait until November 6. I took two bar exams....RI and MA. This wait is awful. I just want to know. I feel like I failed. I only got a 104 raw score on the PMBR final. My only hope is that I saw several D's in my AM session (luckily I didn't change my answers) and I felt okay with the essays.

I dont understand when people say the final was out of 200. I must've missed something cause the last full scale I took was the refresher and that was out of 100.

I took a PMBR final and it was out of 200. The Barbri refresher was out of 100.

5000 replies! We did it guys!

I have just over one week left until I can either be happy or upset with BarBri's course.

*fidgets*

I am so anxious. Good grief.

I have less than 24h before I decide if I love or hate Barbri...

You passed. Start celebrating!

For those of us still waiting, IL chart for this year is up. Compare your Barbri percentile to the MBE scale score and that is probably the best estimate of how you did on the real thing.

Other than the mid-term, how can you tell your Barbri percentile? I don't know that using the mid-term is a good measure b/c a lot changes from then to the final. I think for the final there was a target, but I don't recal seeing any percentiles.

Barbri gave you week by week percentiles on the questions you did (broken down by subject, just take a rough guess of what the average was across subjects). The point is moot now since we can no longer log on and see.

PASSED!!!! will report back with scores

[Good Guy Gaud]

Woo! Congrats

[grizz20]

Felt somewhat pissed with Barbri when I left the exam. I am eating my words now that I passed.

[kykiske]

I PASSED! Miracles do happen

Thank you all for your warm words and kindness these past few months.

I got an email from Barbri this morning saying my book return was processed and my card was credited. I did media mail, and sent it maybe 2-3 weeks after the bar exam.

[kyle010723]

Congrats to everyone that just found out about MN!

A particular thank you to you Kyle! You are a very empathetic person, a trait that sets you above most.

I'm confused.....Barbri seems to be charging people for a retake after they failed? Both students still have their books in their possession.

edit: seems to be only book deposit.

Yea, AZ.

Woo! Can't wait for this to be over *crosses fingers*

Tennessee should be out Friday too, but there isn't a set date.

No set date? That's cruel.

NY and NJ still have a few more weeks

Just got my score advisories from IL. Now I really want to know if I got a 150 or a 190...

Based on DC’s scaled score requirement of 133, I am pleased to advise that you are eligible to transfer your Illinois MBE score to DC. Based on Minnesota’s scaled score requirement of 145 and on North Dakota’s scaled score requirement of 150, I am also pleased to advise that you are eligible to transfer your Illinois MBE score to Minnesota and North Dakota.

So all I know is my MBE scale is 150+.

I got a 124/200 on my Barbri full day simulation and a 64/100 on the refresher.

Nicely done!

Are you planning on transferring any scores? There is a satellite DC office where I work, so I was thinking about doing it, but am not sure if it is worth the hassle.

I'm going to transfer to DC cause I am doing IP, and DC makes sense. I even entertained the idea of MN due to the proximity to IL even though I dont plan on practicing there. I doubt I'll transfer in to ND though.

Same here, AZ. Anxiety is killing me.
