Exams, from bank to item analysis.

Faculty build practice exams from the original SI Law MBE item bank — students take them (timed or untimed), and the platform produces full exam statistics and item analysis — difficulty, discrimination, distractor performance, most-missed rankings. Everything here is original work; no commercial question banks, no proprietary content.

MBE prep by subject

The MBE tests seven subjects. Every subject gets its full item pool as an untimed study bank, plus a timed MBE-style practice block (unofficial) — 25 items in 45 minutes. Original practice material, written for this site; not the official MBE.

0 bar-ready items across 7 MBE subjects + MPRE, counted from the live bank.

Teaching in a law school? Faculty can build assigned exams from these same subject banks in the Exam Builder, gate them with a per-exam access code so only their students join, and follow the cohort in Analytics — item difficulty, discrimination, and most-missed questions, with flags for faculty review only.

How it works

1. Build

Pick items from the original bank (or author your own), set a time limit and pass mark, and publish. About 1.8 minutes per item is standard MBE pacing.

2. Deliver

Students take the exam in timed or untimed mode, with instant scoring and explanations on review.

3. Analyze

Get exam statistics (reliability, score distribution) and per-item analysis: p-values, discrimination, distractor performance, most-missed rankings — with flags for faculty review, never automatic deletion.

New — Question Studio. Students and faculty can create their own original questions with Eli: he drafts each item, then two independent checkers solve it cold before it can be saved — the same triple-check behind the SI Law banks. Disputed items come back flagged with reasons, never silently shipped. Open the Question Studio →

Quick flashcards. Ten-card timed rounds from the original MBE bank — all seven subjects plus MPRE, by topic or mixed. See the question, beat the clock, retry your misses, and ask Eli to explain any card you got wrong. No account needed; built for one-handed phone practice. Play a round →

Study mode. Spaced repetition that runs itself — daily 20-card sessions mix due-for-review cards, your weakest topics, and new material, with intervals of 1, 3, 7, 14, then 30 days. Misses come back tomorrow; Eli explains anything you get wrong. No account needed; your schedule lives on your device. Start studying →

Interview prep. Law-school admissions interviews and OCI / job interviews get the same treatment as the bar exam: formats, the question categories programs actually ask, questions to ask them, timed mock interviews with Eli, and a practice-out-loud block that stays on your device.

What the big platforms do — our version. Commercial systems (ExamSoft, Kaplan's institutional assessment tools, bar-prep analytics dashboards) all provide the same core loop: exam assembly, delivery, and psychometric reporting (item difficulty, discrimination indices, distractor analysis, reliability coefficients, cohort comparisons). This module implements that loop with original code and original items, on open methodology documented below.

Methodology, in plain language

Demo data is simulated with a seeded generator (see js/sample-data.js) and labeled as such everywhere it appears.
