About the Maine Bar Exam

The Maine Bar Examination is a two-day Uniform Bar Examination (UBE) administered by the Maine Board of Bar Examiners under the Maine Supreme Judicial Court. Day 1 consists of the Multistate Performance Test (2 tasks) and the Multistate Essay Examination (6 essays); Day 2 consists of the 200-question Multistate Bar Examination in two 3-hour sessions. The components are combined into a single scaled score, with the MBE worth 50%, the MEE 30%, and the MPT 20%. Maine requires a passing scaled score of 270 and accepts transferred UBE scores. Maine has announced it will begin administering the NCBE NextGen Bar Exam in July 2028.

How do the Maine Bar vocabulary games work?

There are 4 games built on 20 Maine Bar terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.
