I.e., if I buy prep materials to study for the MBE, MEE, and MPT, will they be the same for all UBE jurisdictions?

Take NY for example. Is there a difference between the 2015 MBE, MEE, and MPT, and the upcoming 2016 NY UBE? I know the 2016 NY UBE won't have the NY-specific multiple choice questions anymore.

I honestly have no idea about the bar exam, and I am starting to sort through the maze.

What do you think the 'u' stands for dude

So if I cop 2015 MBE, MEE, MPT test prep books, then I should be okay in that regard?

Yea. Only note would be that the 2016 materials might have improved Civ Pro sections now that the companies have seen what those questions look like on an actual exam. I think I remember seeing a significant amount of posts feeling that the 2015 civ pro materials didn't match the test well, but dunno.

Thanks.

Is the MBE, MEE, and MPT all administered on the same day?

Is the bit of Peastly wisdom that 60%+ on MBE = AUTOPASS applicable to UBE jurisdictions?

MPT AM DAY 1 MEE PM DAY 1 MBE DAY 2.

All jurisdictions have different passing scores and some states also include a certain state specific area.

Thx. I'm primarily looking at NY, and their score is 266 and the state specific stuff is an online exam now.

I don't know that it's 60%. Figure that 116 is what you get for showing up to the MEE/MPT with a pulse and then you need a 150 on the MBE. I think that's more like 70%?

According to that Peast post 150 on MBE is about 60th percentile.

Damn dude. You hate DF so much you're calling him Peast?

I was talking percent correct, not percentile.

Ah damn I'm an idiot. I saw an old peast quote the other day and noticed the username was changed to a bunch of random numbers. I saw this post and saw random numbers and thought it was peast. Why is DF's username a bunch of random numbers too on that page? THE PRUNE?

Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) passing scores by jurisdiction. MPRE score as well for each jurisdiction.

1) Alaska 280 80
2) Idaho 280 85

3) Colorado 276 85

4) Arizona 273 85

5) Montana 270 80
6) Nebraska 270 85
7) New Hampshire 270 79
Utah 270 86
9) Washington 270 85
10) Wyoming 270 85

11) Iowa 266 80
12) Kansas 266 80
13) New York 266 85

14) Alabama 260 75
15) Minnesota 260 85
16) Missouri 260 80
17) North Dakota 260 85

Although studying for them might be the same, each jurisdiction can pick different essays, but not the MBE.

Full disclosure: I'm self studying.

Bruh... I hope you're super disciplined and taking an easy bar.
