Massachusetts Bar Exam: Key Information

Understanding the structure of the Massachusetts Bar Exam is the first step toward building an effective study plan. As experts in the Massachusetts bar, we ensure our tutoring is precisely aligned with the test's format and requirements.

At a Glance:

  • Exam Components: Massachusetts administers the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE), a two-day test consisting of the Multistate Performance Test (MPT), the Multistate Essay Examination (MEE), and the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE).
  • Passing Score: A total scaled score of 270 is required to pass the Massachusetts Bar Exam. The written (MPT/MEE) and multiple-choice (MBE) sections are weighted equally.
  • Official Source: For the most current exam dates, application deadlines, and rules, always consult the official Massachusetts Board of Bar Examiners website.

Specialized Support for Repeat Takers

Graduates from schools with lower first-time pass rates often find that standard, one-size-fits-all bar courses don't provide the diagnostic depth they need. We specialize in identifying the specific gaps in your knowledge and test-taking strategy to ensure you are fully prepared to pass the Massachusetts Bar Exam on your next attempt.

Can You Spot the Bar Exam Trap?

Most examinees miss this Evidence question for one subtle reason. Test your strategy below.

The Challenge

"At a trial for negligence, the plaintiff offers a statement made by the defendant's driver: 'I was going 60 miles per hour and I'm so sorry.' The statement was made to a bystander 30 seconds after the crash."

The Tutor's Strategy

Most students hunt for exceptions like "Excited Utterance." But a pro tutor knows: always check Non-Hearsay (FRE 801d) first. Since the driver is an agent of the defendant, it's an admission by a party-opponent. It's an automatic win that doesn't rely on "excitement" or timing. This is how we guarantee points.

See the AmeriBar Difference

A standard course might just give you a "model answer." We provide the precise, line-by-line feedback you need to improve.

Sample Student Answer Subject: Torts (Negligence)
Tutor Mode

In this case, the defendant is likely liable for negligence. Negligence requires a duty, breach, causation, and damages. The driver had a duty to other drivers to drive safely. By going 60 mph in a 30 mph zone, he breached that duty. Because he was speeding, he hit the plaintiff, which caused her broken arm. The plaintiff has medical bills, so she has damages.

Tutor Note: Good identification of the elements, but you need to state the specific standard of care for a "reasonable driver" here to maximize your score.
Tutor Note: This is a "conclusory statement." You must bridge the gap: *Why* exactly does the speeding count as the proximate cause? Mention the "foreseeability" of the accident.

The defendant might argue that the plaintiff was also at fault. However, under Massachusetts law, the plaintiff can still recover as long as her fault is not greater than the defendant's. Therefore, the plaintiff will likely win her case against the driver.

Tutor Note: Excellent! You correctly identified the *Modified Comparative Negligence* rule used in Massachusetts. High point-earning observation.

The Massachusetts Standard

270

Why every single point is critical in the Commonwealth.

Unlike neighbor states with lower thresholds, Massachusetts demands a 270 as a high-prestige UBE jurisdiction. There is no "mercy buffer" here. Our tutoring focus is specifically designed to turn a "near-miss" 265 into a comfortable passing margin.
