Bar Professors Provides Private Tutoring for North Carolina, Florida, the MBE, MEE, UBE New York, Texas and California. Sign up for our MBE/Essays Seminars at www.barprofessors.com.
The MBE scores have been systematically lower since the NCBE has made its changes.
The mean scaled score on the February administration of the MBE fell to 135, down 1.2 points from the previous year and the lowest average score on a February administration of the test since 1983. That is a 33 year low for the MBE.
The July 2015 results were also down 1.6 points from the previous year, to 139.9, its lowest point since 1988.
The NCBE believes the downward trend is likely to continue for at least a couple more years. We do know that performance on the bar exam has continued to dip down to levels we have never seen and it appears that this is not an aberration, but a new realty.
Bar Professors can help you increase your MBE scores.

For the MBE portion, we will discuss and cover the frequently tested areas, areas always covered in each subject, understanding legal distinctions and narrowing your choices down to two answers. The materials include MBE outlines and questions, essay strategies and analysis for frequently tested subjects.

The July 2016 Bar Exam: Should Law Schools Be Responsible for Students Pass Rates?
Bar Professors Provides Private Tutoring for North Carolina, Florida, the MBE, MEE, UBE New York, Texas and California. Sign up for our MBE/Essays Seminars at www.barprofessors.com.
The ABA is considering a plan that would force all law schools to ensure that 75% of their students pass the bar exam within two years of graduation.
The US Department of Education is pressuring the ABA to hold law schools accountable for its students’ pass rate. As we know, many law students leave law school with enormous debt they are unable to pay because the student cannot pass the bar exam.
The current ABA rule allows law schools to meet the bar passage requirement in two ways: At least 75% of their graduates pass the bar exam during 3 or more of the past 5 years or the first-time bar pass rate is no more than 15% below the statewide average in at least 3 of the past 5 years. This would jeopardize the accreditation of many schools
Bar Professors have talked with deans from many law schools. The deans are only focused on their current students and not those that have graduated and have struggled to pass the bar exam as repeat takers.
