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.

The Best MPRE Tips From Around The Internet

The Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (“MPRE”) is a mandatory test in almost every jurisdiction (except Wisconsin and Puerto Rico) that an individual must take in order to practice law. The MPRE is offered three times per year by the National Conference for Bar Examiners (NCBE). Students can take the MPRE in March, August, or October/November. The purpose of the MPRE is to measure your knowledge of ethical rules that govern the professional conduct of lawyers. Each jurisdiction has a different passing score, so make sure you know your jurisdiction’s passing score prior to taking the MPRE!

Compared to the bar exam, the MPRE is a much lighter test: it lasts for 2 hours and consists of 60 multiple-choice questions. Easy, right? Not so fast! While it is easy to underestimate the MPRE, if you do not take your prep for it seriously, you may have to retake it which can delay when you start practicing law.

Thankfully, there are many resources available on the internet to help you prepare for, study for, and take the MPRE.  We compiled a list that you can check out below!
