Understanding Florida MBE: Scaled v. Raw

Many students have asked me what a scaled score is versus a raw MBE score.

A raw score is the actual score you received on the MBE. For example, you answer 120questions correctly out of 200. Your scaled score are points that are given to your raw scale based on the difficulty of the exam and how your fellow bar takers scored. For example, your raw score is 120. Your scaled score can have 15 points added and your actual score can end up to be 135.

Generally, you will receive between 10 and 18 additional points to your raw scale.

In Florida, my students are coming in with between 20-25 additional points added to their raw score.

Please note barprofessors will provide private tutorial for the Florida February 2010 bar exam. Please go to barprofessors.com or e-mail barprofessors at pass@barprofessors.com
