JD Advising’s February 2025 MPT Predictions

1. Objective Memorandum

The objective memorandum has appeared on 33 out of the 39 MPT exams since July 2006, or on 85% of the exams. The objective memorandum is the most highly tested MPT task. The objective memorandum was most recently tested in July 2024, when it was the assigned task for both MPTs.  Because it is incredibly common for objective memoranda to appear on consecutive administrations, the objective memorandum is ripe for testing on the February 2025 exam.

If you are unfamiliar with how to format an objective memorandum, take a look at our post on how to format an objective memorandum on the MPT. It is a good idea to know how to format an objective memorandum because usually formatting instructions are not provided on the exam.

To get some practice with objective memorandum tasks, we suggest that you complete a few tasks under timed conditions to determine your strengths and weaknesses. We recommend taking a look at the following objective memorandum MPTs, most of which are available for free on the NCBE Study Aids website:

• July 2014: In re Kay Struckman
• February 2015: In re Harrison
• July 2016: In re Whirley
• February 2017: In re Ace Chemical
• July 2017: In re Zimmer Farm
• February 2023: In re Hill

2. Persuasive Brief

After the objective memorandum, the persuasive brief is the next most frequently tested MPT task, appearing on the MPT 49% of the time since July 2006 and on 19 out of 39 MPT exams. The persuasive brief was most recently tested in February 2024. Lately, the persuasive brief has been tested every other administration. However, in the past, the persuasive brief was tested on about four consecutive exams and then omitted on the following few exams. The persuasive brief is ripe for testing on the February 2025 MPT.

If you are unfamiliar with how to format a persuasive brief, take a look at our post on how to format a persuasive brief on the MPT. It is good to know how to format a persuasive brief because formatting instructions are often not provided on the exam. Do not assume that the formatting instructions for all persuasive briefs (or any task!) are the same. Please read the formatting memo, if one is provided, very carefully. Formatting memos are always found immediately after the task memo in the MPT’s File.

To get some practice with persuasive briefs, we suggest you complete a few tasks under timed conditions to determine your strengths and weaknesses. We recommend taking a look at the following MPTs, most of which are available for free on the NCBE Study Aids website:

• July 2012: Ashton v. Indigo Construction Co.
• February 2013: In re Guardianship of Will Fox
• February 2014: In re Rowan
• July 2016: Nash v. Franklin Department of Revenue
• July 2017:  Peek et al. v. Doris Stern and Allied Behavioral Health Services
• February 2018: State of Franklin v. Clegane

3. Wildcard Task

After the persuasive brief, the wildcard task is the next most frequently tested MPT task, appearing on the MPT 33% of the time since July 2006 and on 13 out of 39 MPT exams. The wildcard task was most recently tested in October 2020.

If you are unfamiliar with how to format a wildcard task, take a look at our post on how to format a wildcard task on the MPT. Please read the formatting memo, if one is provided, very carefully if you encounter a wildcard task. Formatting memos are always found immediately after the task memo in the MPT’s File.

To get some practice with wildcard tasks, we suggest you complete a few tasks under timed conditions to determine your strengths and weaknesses. We recommend taking a look at the following MPTs:

• July 2011: In re Social Networking Inquiry
• July 2012: State of Franklin v. Soper
• July 2018: Rugby Owners & Players Association
• February 2020: In re Eli Doran

4. Opinion Letter

After the wildcard task, the opinion letter is the next most frequently tested MPT task, appearing on the MPT 18% of the time since July 2006 and on 7 out of 39 MPT exams. In recent administrations, it has been tested more frequently, appearing on 3 of the past 10 MPT exams. The opinion letter was most recently tested in July 2023.

If you are unfamiliar with how to format an opinion letter, take a look at our post on how to format an opinion letter on the MPT. Do not assume that the formatting instructions for all opinion letters (or any task!) are the same. Please read the formatting memo, if one is provided, very carefully. Formatting memos are always found immediately after the task memo in the MPT’s File.

To get some practice with opinion letters, we suggest you complete a few tasks under timed conditions to determine your strengths and weaknesses. We recommend taking a look at the following MPTs:

• February 2013: In re Wendy Martel
• July 2015: In re Bryan Carr
• July 2015: In re Franklin Acres
• July 2021: In re Canyon Gate Property Owners Association

5. Demand Letter

After the opinion letter, the demand letter is the next most frequently tested MPT task, appearing on the MPT 13% of the time since July 2006 and on 5 out of 39 MPT exams. The demand letter was last tested in February 2016.

If you are unfamiliar with how to format a demand letter, take a look at our post on how to format a demand letter on the MPT. Do not assume that the formatting instructions for all demand letters (or any task!) are the same. Please read the formatting memo, if one is provided, very carefully. Formatting memos are always found immediately after the task memo in the MPT’s File.

To get some practice with demand letters, we suggest you complete a few tasks under timed conditions to determine your strengths and weaknesses. We recommend taking a look at the following MPTs, all of which are available for free on the NCBE Study Aids website:

• July 2014: In re Linda Duram
• February 2015: In re Community General Hospital
• February 2016: Miller v. Trapp

Note:  You should take the time to review all of the commonly tested tasks on the MPT (objective memorandum, persuasive brief, demand letter, and opinion letter) in addition to a few wildcard tasks. It is also worthwhile to review our free MPT One-Sheet (pictured below), our recently revamped MPT Guide, and our MPT Mastery Class if you need extra guidance.

If you struggle with MPTs, we recommend you start practicing MPTs NOW. The more time you spend with MPTs, the better!

We hope you find these recommendations for suggested essays to review helpful as you prepare for the February 2025 Uniform Bar Exam. We wish you much success!
