What To Do If You Failed The MPRE
Receiving the news that you failed the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE) is not a great feeling. You likely took the exam for the first time while you had a lot on your plate. Between juggling responsibilities as a law student, clerking, and possibly even preparing for graduation, finding time to study for the MPRE can be incredibly difficult!
Once the shock settles in that you didn’t pass the exam, take a moment to relax and understand it’s not the end of the road. First, if you are one of the people who took the exam while still in law school, you can take the exam again before you head into bar study. If you can’t retake the MPRE for a while, most states still allow you to take the bar exam prior to passing the MPRE (although, be sure to check with your jurisdiction!). So, it is safe to breathe and consider what avenues you can take and create a game plan that works for you.
In this article is to provide you with a few things to ponder as you create a game plan for how you can pass the MPRE the next time you take it! Read on for what to do if you failed the MPRE.
