Find Your State's Bar Exam Facts

The Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) tests 7 subjects the same way in every state: Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts, across 200 scored multiple-choice questions. What changes state to state is whether that state has adopted the Uniform Bar Exam, which combines the MBE with essay and performance-test components into one portable score, the minimum passing score, and whether extra components like the MEE or MPT are required.

California, Louisiana, and several other states still run their own distinct exam instead of the UBE, so the format you should be preparing for depends entirely on where you're sitting the exam. Select your state below for the exact passing score, UBE status, and requirements, or start the general MBE-subject practice test further down the page.

How to Prepare for the Bar Exam

About the real test

The Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) tests 7 subjects identically nationwide, Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts, across 200 scored multiple-choice questions. Most, but not all, states have adopted the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE), which combines the MBE with essay (MEE) and performance-test (MPT) components into one portable score.

Things that make the biggest difference

Every MBE question is worth the same, unlike essays

There's no partial credit on multiple choice. A quick, confident wrong guess costs you the same as a slow, agonized one, so build speed and don't let any single question eat your clock.

Know whether your state uses the UBE before you plan your prep

UBE states share a portable score across jurisdictions; non-UBE states like California and Louisiana run their own distinct exam formats. Confirm which applies to you before assuming your study plan transfers.

Issue-spotting is the real skill the MBE tests, not memorization alone

Most wrong answers aren't factually false, they're correct law applied to the wrong issue. Practice identifying exactly what legal question a fact pattern is actually asking before evaluating the answer choices.

Frequently Asked Questions

The MBE (Multistate Bar Examination) tests 7 subjects identically nationwide: Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts. What varies by state is whether the state has adopted the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE), the minimum passing score, and additional components like the MEE and MPT. Choose your state below for the real facts.
The Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) combines the MBE, MEE (Multistate Essay Exam), and MPT (Multistate Performance Test) into a single portable score that can be transferred to other UBE-adopting jurisdictions. Most, but not all, states have adopted it, some states like California and Louisiana still run their own exam.
As of this build, non-UBE states include California, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, South Dakota, and Virginia, each running its own exam format. Louisiana is the most distinct, being the only US state built on a civil-law tradition. Always verify current status with your state's bar authority, as this changes as states adopt or plan to adopt the NextGen UBE.
