BAR INFORMATION

MPRE (Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination)

In addition to the State Bar Examination, each state requires the successful completion of the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination. Each state determines the passing score required in that state. In Massachusetts, students must earn a passing score of 85 to be eligible to apply for the Massachusetts Bar. Each student should inquire in the jurisdiction in which he or she plans to take the bar for specific MPRE requirements. Students may inquire directly at the National Conference of Bar Examiners . Testing dates for the MPRE occur in August, November and March each year.
