You will need this number to take the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE) and the Multistate Bar Exam (MBE), which are developed by the NCBE and are both required in the majority of jurisdictions.  \nHere’s where to register with the NCBE: [ncbex.org/exams/mbe/registration](ncbex.org/exams/mbe/registration)  \nRegister, Take + Pass the MPRE  \nExam date: / /  \nRegistration deadline: / /  \nThe MPRE is a two-hour, 60-question, multiple-choice exam developed by the NCBE and administered three times a year in March, August and November. A passing MPRE score is required for admission to the bars of all but two U. S. jurisdictions (Wisconsin and Puerto Rico). Note: Connecticut and New Jersey will accept the successful completion of a professional responsibility law school course in lieu of a passing MPRE score.  \nPro Tip: Sign up for BARBRI’s free MPRE Review course for a head start, regardless of whether a passing score is required before or after your bar exam.  \nRegister here: [barbri.com/mpre-prep](barbri.com/mpre-prep)  \nApply for the Bar Exam  \nBar exam filing deadline: / /  \nEach jurisdiction independently decides who may sit for their bar exam and who may be ultimately admitted. You must complete an application to sit foryour state’s bar exam. Several states have unique, state specific application requirements. Many states also require an additional state law course or exam as part of their admissions requirements.  \nPro Tip: Download the free BARBRI Bar Exam Digest by scanning the QR code to get the contact and website information for the bar examiner’s office in each state jurisdiction  \n[barbri.com/resources/free-bar-exam-digest](barbri.com/resources/free-bar-exam-digest)  \nStay Up-to-date on Your State’s Deadlines  \nTimely application: Date   Fee $   Final application: Date   Fee $   Laptop registration: Date   Fee $   Character & Fitness: Date   Fee $    \nYour state/jurisdiction bar exam fees and deadlines will vary, but expect typical fees such as:  \n• On-motion application  \n• Character and fitness  \n• Laptop/software  \nPro Tip: Get up-to-date information on fees and deadlines specific to your state so you can avoid any late fees by consulting the  BARBRI Bar Exam Digest.  \nComplete the Character + Fitness Application  \nCharacter and fitness application deadline: / /  \nYou have to submit the Character and Fitness Application either before or after you take the bar exam depending on your state’s requirements. You will be asked to disclose details about your academic, work, and financial history, as well as include any references, criminal record, and civil proceedings.  \nPro Tip: Give yourself enough time to gather the required information as this can be an extensive process. Previously submitted this application? Check your state’s requirements to see if you need to update and resubmit.  \nSign a Notarized Authorization + Release (A+R) Form  \nA notarized A&R grants character and fitness analysts the authority to perform a full background check. You’ll need to print this form and sign it in the presence of a notary. Depending on your state/jurisdiction, you can upload the A&R to your online account or mail it postmarked no later than  \nthe filing deadline for the bar exam.  \nNote: Your bar exam application will not be accepted without a signed and notarized A&R form.  \nSecure Your Bar Review Course Early for a Successful Start  \nReady for bar prep?
