“Passing the Bar”
To become a lawyer, you must pass the bar which is comprised of a three step process. First, passing the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE). Second, passing the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE). Third, passing a character and fitness test.
The Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) is designed to test a prospective attorney’s knowledge about the Model Ethics Code created and by the American Bar Association. The exam consists of 60 multiple choice questions (50 scored and 10 not scored) taken within a two-hour time limit.

The Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) is comprised of three parts: Multistate Essay Examination, Multistate Performance Test, Multistate Bar Exam. Each state has unique requirements.
