If anything, it's going to be more than that because the ABA wants to limit the number of admitted attorneys.

140 raw means you basically cannot fail unless you completely shit the bed on everything else.

that means you basically can write gibberish on the essays and still pass, so yes.

NY allows you to carry MBE points towards the whole score, so yeah.

If you're also taking NJ, NJ does not allow you to carry MBE points over, so you have to hit a minimum on MBE and the essays.

Yeah, I regret signing up for NJ now. I'm not worried about failing it, but it just pisses me off that I have to spend another day on this shit, and not just that, but they put me at a testing location that's in the middle of fucking nowhere and now I have to crash in an Econo Lodge after the second day of the NY bar.

Not withdrawing though, spent too much money on the application.

this is not true. it is a simple 50/50 split, 133 passing score. So if you get a 140 scaled on the mbe then you would only need a 126 on the essays to pass.

this is unless something changed recently.

Must be an easy state.

In my first state, you could score a perfect 200 (190) and still fail due to the essays.

Fuck yes. They won't even touch MBE unless you've hit the minimum essay score.

Not to mention that they don't publish model answers for the essays.

You are cruising blind on some shit that BarBri doesn't even teach for my jurisdiction.

A 140 raw is fucking high, a 128 simulated was in the 76th percentile, and a 145 raw was 97th percentile....so if people do the same as on simulated, about 90% will fail.

BarBri told us a 126 raw is passing....
