When preparing for the bar exam, there’s a lot of emphasis on practicing MBE questions. In doing so, some students wonder how to make the most of their time doing MBE practice questions. In this post, we cover how to practice MBE questions so you can get the most out of your prep before you take the bar exam.
The MBE is a component of the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) and also appears on the majority of state-specific bar exams. In most jurisdictions (including jurisdictions employing the UBE), the MBE is worth fifty percent of the total bar exam score. Given this, many students often wonder if they are adequately prepared for the MBE. In this post, we provide you with some indicators to help you determine whether you are prepared for the MBE!
With complex questions at almost every turn, the MBE can quickly become a nightmare…if you let it. While students can wiggle themselves out of a tricky essay question, the same strategy doesn’t apply to the MBE. Each MBE question includes only four answer choices, so there’s no opportunity to smooth talk your way around a question. On top of four possible answer choices, add in hundreds of questions, limited time, and circumstantial pressure. In this post, we present three reasons why students struggle with the MBE.
This blog post may seem, well, odd. Isn’t it straightforward? Don’t you just practice MBE questions by doing hundreds of them at a time or a set amount every day? Isn’t practicing MBE questions simply doing MBE questions? Well, not quite. Many students take the approach of more is better with total disregard for the process of practicing MBE questions. This post provides a blueprint for optimizing your MBE preparation so that on test day, your meticulous and persistent practice will kick in and pay back in bar exam pass dividends.
Nobody ever said the bar exam would be easy, but does the bar exam have to be so difficult? Many students initially think that the Multistate Bar Exam (MBE) containing 200 multiple-choice questions will be easier than the essays. Once students start studying, however, they quickly notice that the MBE is actually quite difficult. We discuss four common reasons that make the MBE so difficult.
The Multistate Bar Exam (MBE) is a 200-question multiple-choice test that is administered in every jurisdiction, with the exception of Louisiana and Puerto Rico. Many students find the MBE to be difficult, mainly because of the multiple-choice aspect of this portion of the bar exam. But, what do you do when you find yourself struggling with those MBE practice questions? In this post, we talk about how a tutor can help you study for this multiple-choice exam!
So you put away your bar prep materials, set that timer, and get ready for your MBE practice exam. The problem, though, is that timer. It always goes off before you’re done with those multiple-choice questions! After this happens a few times, you may be feeling somewhat discouraged and anxious. You might be wondering, “What if I run out of time on the MBE?” There are a lot of ways to improve your speed while you practice for the MBE. This post, however, covers a few things to keep in mind on exam day if you run out of time on the MBE.
You’ve memorized all you can and completed more practice questions than you can count. Even so, the thought of sitting down to take the MBE on exam day can still be frightening and overwhelming. In this post, we’ll cover three MBE tips to keep in my when taking the bar exam.
After the first year of law school, law students have to make many choices. Where should I work or intern? Should I do a journal or compete in moot court? What courses should I take? Another question many students find themselves asking is when should I sit for the MPRE? We discuss this in more detail below.
The focus of this blog article is on the MBE portion of the bar exam. The MBE portion is comprised of exactly 200 multiple choice questions that must be answered over a six-hour period. So, with such a heavy focus on multiple-choice questions – what are the best kind to use when preparing for the bar exam? Do you depend solely on the MBE practice questions included in your bar prep course? Should you practice using MBE questions found online? What about from supplemental bar prep tools? In short, the best MBE practice questions are those previously included on the bar exam and later released by the National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE). We’ve previously discussed the best places to find practice MBE questions. This time around we’re going to look at several key advantages to practicing with previously released MBE questions.
Too often students substitute the quantity of practice problems for the quality of the practice strategy. Of course, practicing MBE problems is necessary for mastering the MBE, but you can better build MBE endurance through the quality of your practice. Without a proper study strategy, many students taking the bar exam waste time and effort on increasing practice count. Let’s talk about three simple ways to increase the quality of your MBE practice while maximizing the effectiveness of each practice question you answer. Read further to see how to get your best MBE practice.
When studying for the bar exam, many students find themselves asking, why am I so nervous about the MBE? As a reminder, the Multistate Bar Exam, or more commonly known as the “MBE,” is the portion of the bar exam that contains 200 multiple-choice questions. Students tackle the MBE in two three-hour chunks, usually on the second day of the bar exam. (For an MBE primer, check out What is the Multistate Bar Exam?) If you are one of those folks questioning the fortitude of your nervous system, let’s just say at the outset—it’s perfectly normal to be nervous about the MBE. This post explores some of the reasons why the MBE can prove so challenging.
