The Committee on Bar Admissions administers a written examination, which consists of two parts: A nine-part written examination (Part I) and the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (Part II).
The mutli-part written examination consists of nine separate examinations. Examinations 1 - 5 are "Code" examinations; examinations 6 - 9 are "Non-Code" examinations. An applicant must receive a score of 70 or higher to pass each subject examination in Part I.
The Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE) is administered by the National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE). An applicant must receive a scaled score of 80 or higher to have passed the MPRE
Newly-Enacted Legislation:
It is the policy of the Committee that newly-enacted legislation–including
amendments to existing federal and state statutes, and amendments, additions,
and deletions affecting federal and state rules of procedure and evidence – will
be tested six months after the effective date of the legislation, as opposed to
the date of enactment.
