Why do you say it was more difficult if you don't mind me asking. Consensus seems to be that the Barbri questions are more difficult.

EDIT: Quoting
The posts in here had the opposite consensus - the real MBE is more difficult than the Barbri questions.
I can second that. Barbri questions are easier than and different from real bar exam questions.
I think most who have taken the real MBE can attest that it's harder than the "enhanced" Barbri questions. Also, the referenced thread with the survey is enlightening on the difficulty of the real questions compared to simulated questions.

I mean if u just use the percentiles, like barbri says, even if u are at the middle of the pack you should be solidly in passing territory ya? I'm pretty sure most/all states are above a 50% pass rate, except maybe CA cuz of the un-accredited school kids.

I'd also bet that the average barbri taker scores better than the testing populace at large so median on barbri would actually be above median on the actual exam
