This tool helps prospective attorneys determine their overall performance on the Uniform Bar Examination (UBE) and other state-specific law exams. It typically requires inputting raw scores from the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE), the Multistate Essay Examination (MEE), the Multistate Performance Test (MPT), and any state-specific components. The tool then calculates a total weighted score, often predicting the likelihood of passing. For example, a user might input their MBE scaled score, MEE and MPT raw scores, and state essay scores to receive a calculated total score and a passing probability estimation.
Estimating scores offers several advantages. It allows candidates to gauge their performance shortly after completing the exam, reducing anxiety during the waiting period for official results. This preliminary assessment enables examinees to begin planning next steps, whether preparing to retake the exam or transitioning into legal practice. Historically, such estimations were performed manually using complex weighting formulas. The advent of online tools simplifies the process, providing quick and accurate results. This empowers candidates with valuable information for self-assessment and strategic planning.
