Does anyone know if California accepts transferred MBE scores? I heard there were some jurisdictions that accept transferred MBE scores...
Thanks in advance!

They do not. Check out Chart 8 and the supplemental comments (MBE info is bottom of p. 39-40) for each jurisdiction.

They don't accept transferred MBE scores, however, if you've been a licensed attorney in good standing in another jurisdiction for the last 4 years immediately preceding the exam, you can sit for the Attorney exam. The Attorney exam is the essay and MPT portion of the test and you skip MBE day.
