Speaking of which...just took the diagnostic, and 51% :oops: I definitely didn't focus a ton, and know I have a lot of work to do ahead of me, but this was slightly frightening. Maybe it will scare me into studying even harder!
49% here. :oops:
49 percentile or that you got 49% right (MBE only)? what's a good percentage?
I was scoring around 40% throughout the entire prep for February and ended up passing, so don't pay attention to your prep results, just make sure you understand the material.

I think we're supposed to get an email soon.
If you're out of state, make sure you sign up as soon as you receive the email. I'm coming from Central Mass, which isn't too bad a drive to Albany, but I do not want to end up in Buffalo.
Has anyone got this email yet?

Fingers crossed for tomorrow. The whole "we're not processing address changes till the middle of June" thing though makes me scared that's when they'll get around to it…

Do we have to have our handwriting/certificate of attendance stuff processed before we can get assigned to a test center?

Cool, thanks.

I wouldn't have even thought about this one except for people posting on here. Just did it today though so should be good.
Yeah I gave mine to my school a week ago but I haven't had an email like someone else mentioned, so maybe I should call the school to make sure they did it.

Depends on how you're getting there. I'm flying in from out of state, so I'm hoping buffalo since I've never been and there are cheaper hotels much closer to the site still available.

If we don't see anything today is it likely that anything would come over the weekend? Would rather not monitor e-mail all weekend lol.

I called about something else today and also asked about the test locations situation - the person I spoke to said that the information would be sent out "in the next week or two, so just keep an eye on your email."

Anyone get location e-mail yet? I registered my laptop and haven't heard back yet. Not even concerned about the open book NYLE in August, it's just matter of mastering MEE, MBE, and the MPT now.

FYI - Took the NYLE on May 26. It's a joke so don't worry too much about it. The questions are almost verbatim from the outline they gave. I finished with an hour to spare :wink:

I wouldn't even think about for now. From what I read in the 4L thread, it was super easy to just cntrl+F the whole thing.

Side note, I'm so glad we got to attend school (UG in particular) before boomer-professors realized how easy that is.

Hello all. I am taking UBE in AZ then (assuming I score 266+) transferring score to NY so I can live at home for free in AZ! But since the tests are the same and there is no AZ bar thread, figure I'd join in here!
