About the MI Bar Exam
The Michigan Bar Examination is a two-day Uniform Bar Exam (UBE). Michigan adopted the UBE beginning with the February 2023 administration, replacing its former format of roughly 15 Michigan-specific essays. Day 1 features 6 Multistate Essay Examination (MEE) essays and 2 Multistate Performance Tests (MPTs); Day 2 is the 200-question Multistate Bar Examination (MBE). Scores weight the MBE 50%, MEE 30%, and MPT 20%, and the portable UBE score transfers to other UBE jurisdictions. While the UBE tests general law, Michigan practitioners must still know distinctive state law such as no-fault auto insurance, EPIC, and the Michigan Court Rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The game is free to play with no sign-up. Signing in adds AI explanations for any term.
How does the Michigan Bar vocabulary game work?
Each round shows a clue for one of 20 Michigan Bar terms. Guess the term in six tries: green means the right letter in the right spot, yellow means the letter is in the term but in another spot, and gray means it is not in the term. After the round, read the explanation and play the next term.
Where do the Michigan Bar terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the Michigan Board of Law Examiners content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
Does Michigan use the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE)?
Yes. Michigan adopted the UBE beginning with the February 2023 administration, replacing its former format of roughly 15 Michigan-specific essays. The UBE combines the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE, 50%), the Multistate Essay Examination (MEE, 30%), and the Multistate Performance Test (MPT, 20%). Michigan scores are now portable and may be transferred to other UBE jurisdictions.
What is the passing score for the Michigan Bar Exam?
Michigan requires a minimum combined UBE score of 268 out of 400 to pass. That is above most UBE jurisdictions, which set 260 to 266; only those requiring 270, such as Arizona, Colorado, Massachusetts, Ohio and Pennsylvania, are higher. There is no separate component minimum; only the combined total of the MBE, MEE, and MPT matters. The portable score may also satisfy higher cut scores in other UBE states.
