About the MPRE Exam
The MPRE tests knowledge of legal ethics and professional responsibility — a prerequisite for bar admission in most U.S. jurisdictions (Wisconsin and Puerto Rico do not require it). NCBE does not publish a pass rate; it releases only national mean scaled scores, and passing depends on each jurisdiction's required score (75-86). With a focused 2-hour format, the MPRE is manageable with targeted preparation on the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct and the Model Code of Judicial Conduct.
Exam sponsor: NCBE. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

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 MPRE vocabulary game work?
Each round shows a clue for one of 20 MPRE 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 MPRE terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the NCBE content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
What is the MPRE passing score?
MPRE passing scores vary by jurisdiction, ranging from 75 to 86 on a scale of 50-150. The most common minimum passing scores are 85 (used by New York and many other states) and 80; California requires 86. The average MPRE score was 96.7 in November 2025, well above most passing thresholds. With 20-40 hours of focused preparation, most examinees pass on their first attempt.
When should I take the MPRE?
Most law students take the MPRE during their second or third year of law school, ideally during or just after completing a Professional Responsibility course. The MPRE is offered three times per year: March, August, and November. Taking it early gives you time to retake if needed before bar admission. Check your jurisdiction's MPRE validity period (typically 2-5 years).
