Unofficial guide · not affiliated with the NCBE, the ABA, or any state bar Exam Admin

Bar exam prep, built for law students.

Practice the way the exam actually tests you — timed MBE exams, quick-fire flashcards, and spaced-repetition study sessions, all drawn from an original question bank covering the seven MBE subjects plus the MPRE. Ask Eli, the SI Law assistant, whenever you get stuck. Eli is a bar-prep copilot, not a lawyer — he never gives legal advice.

What is the bar exam?

The bar examination is the licensing exam law graduates must pass to practice law, administered state by state. Its shared national components are developed by the National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE): the MBE (Multistate Bar Examination) — 200 multiple-choice questions, 175 scored, across seven subjects; the MEE (Multistate Essay Examination) — six 30-minute essays; the MPT (Multistate Performance Test) — two 90-minute lawyering tasks; and the MPRE (Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination) — a separate 60-question ethics exam required in nearly every jurisdiction.

Most states administer the Uniform Bar Examination (UBE) — the MBE plus MEE plus MPT, with portable scores. Some states, notably California, run their own exams with state-specific essays and performance tests alongside the MBE. Eli is state-aware: tell him your state and he tailors the plan.

Our read: everything on this site is unofficial practice material — original questions written for SI Law, not the official exam. For authoritative exam details, start with the NCBE and your state bar.

The MBE format, covered. Every bank item is a single-best-answer multiple-choice question in the MBE style: a fact pattern, a call of the question, and four options — one best answer. Explanations cover why the key is right and why each distractor is wrong. Flagged or under-review items are never drawn. Difficulty labels are estimated, never calibrated.

The seven MBE subjects + the MPRE

The MBE tests seven subjects — Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts. The MPRE tests professional responsibility (the ABA Model Rules and related ethics law). Every subject gets its own study bank and timed practice block in Exam Admin.
