How do I proceed with concurrent Bar Applications in NY and MA?

I already applied to the NY Bar and want to apply to the MA bar as well before the deadline in two weeks. However, I haven't found any resource that explains how I can take the exam in one jurisdiction and have the score reported to both states.

If someone can either point me to the resource, or explain to me how to do it, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

If memory serves me correct, Massachusetts is a UBE state for July 2018. As a result, you’d have to do the exam in one state (I’m presuming MA because NY’s deadline has passed) and you do a UBE transfer application to the other when you get your score - provided you get a 270+.
