The Massachusetts Bar Exam requires a minimum scaled combined score of 270 points out of 400 points to pass. The MBE® is weighted at 50% of the score, the Essays are weighted at 30%, and the MPT®s are weighted at 20%.

The minimum passing scaled score is 85 or higher.

Massachusetts permits admission on motion, without examination, for applicants who have practiced for five of the last seven years, are admitted to practice in another jurisdiction, have met the education requirements and passed the MPRE® with a score of 85 or higher.

Applicants who have obtained at least a 270 on the UBE® in another jurisdiction may apply for admission. An applicant has three years from the date of the exam to transfer the UBE® score to Massachusetts.

Beginning with the July 2018 UBE® administration, an applicant for admission in Massachusetts must also take the Massachusetts Law Component (MLC). The MLC is an online fifty-question multiple choice exam on key distinctions of Massachusetts law and procedure. The exam questions are based on substantive outlines provided to the applicant, including: Access to Justice, Anti-Discrimination Law, Business Organizations, Civil Procedure, Consumer Protections ,Criminal Law and Procedure, Domestic Relations, Estates and Wills, and Evidence.
