Grading
The 400-point examination consists of two equally weighted components: (1) the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE®) and (2) a written examination, which consists of two Multistate Performance Test (MPT®) items and four essay questions. Raw scores on the MPT® items will be multiplied by 1.5 and added to raw scores on the essay questions. Total raw scores on the written examination will be converted to the 200-point MBE® scale and then combined with the scaled MBE® score to obtain a final score. A score of 270 is required to pass the examination. However, your MPT® and essay answers will not be graded unless you achieve a scaled score of at least 115 on the MBE® portion of the examination.

MPRE®
A minimum passing scaled score is 75 or higher.
