Re: November 2005 MPRE

More | Report Post

I took the MPRE in November as well out here in this sunny
state of Texas and alot of the questions were BS. They were
so subtle that 2 of the answers always seemed right. I
think that alot of the questions on the exam were poorly
written. Well the good thing about it is that the MPRE is
graded on a curved scale and everyone else experienced the
same uncertainty while taking the exam.

There was one chick that got up and left the room after 40
minutes of taking the exam. There is no f**king way that
she could have finished that test in 40 minutes. I think it
was so difficult for her that she just gave up.

Hey Joe you wouldnt happen to know anyone who is selling
some NY Barbri materials because I'm going to take the bar
this February in NY?
