MULTISTATE BAR EXAM

The Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) is a six-hour, two-hundred question multiple-choice examination covering contracts, torts, constitutional law, criminal law, evidence, and real property. The MBE is developed by the National Conference of Bar Examiners and is tested on the last Wednesday in February and the last Wednesday in July of each year. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO FROM NCBEX.ORG

MBE SUBJECT MATTER OUTLINES
Criminal Law | Constitutional Law | Property
Torts | Evidence | Contracts

Do them early and often. During your initial study you can study by subject matter, but toward the middle, random order is probably best. After you understand your strenghts and weaknesses, you can then study by subject matter to ameliorate any deficiencies.

Your goal should be to complete 2500 individual MBE questions over the course of your preparation. The more questions you complete, review and correct, the more familiar you will be with the test. This familiarity leds to the understanding necessary for scoring in the upper percentile of test takers nationwide.

The higher your MBE scaled score, the more room for error you have on your essays. Though in Maryland, the MBE are only 33% of the score needed to get over the Bar. Most time spent taking questions under exam-like conditions should be spent on ESSAYS.
