How difficult is the Mpre?
The Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) is a difficult exam for law students to take. The difficulty doesn’t lie in the material necessarily, though the Model Rules of Professional Responsibility can be counter-intuitive at times, but rather, the difficulty is in everything that surrounds the MPRE.
How many hours study for Mpre?
Our general advice for how long you should study for the MPRE is as follows: It is helpful to take the MPRE after you take Professional Responsibility. Then you should plan on, as a general rule, starting at least a month out. Study between 4 and 6 hours a week. Focus first on memorizing the rules.
Is the Mpre harder than the bar exam?
The MPRE is a difficult test and the questions are arguably even more difficult than the bar exam given that it is hard to test ethics in a multiple-choice format. Students struggle with the style of questions as well as the substance. While the bar exam has more material, it is tested in a more intuitive way.
Is Barbri harder than Mpre?
Update 2017 – Barbri questions are still very similar to MPRE, but are more difficult and take longer to read on average compared with the test. I scored around 85% on Barbri, but feel as though I did better on the MPRE today.
How many questions can you get wrong on Mpre?
The MPRE should not be underestimated. Two questions can make the difference between passing (answering 60% of the questions correctly) and failing the exam (answering 50% of the questions correctly) in many jurisdictions!
Is the Mpre curved?
The MPRE is curved to help ensure that you are not unfairly penalized (or rewarded) for taking a more (or less) difficult version of the exam. Assume every MPRE question you answer correctly is worth three points, round up and then add one additional correct answer just to be safe.
