The typical path to becoming a licensed attorney in Nebraska is as follows: earn an undergraduate degree, pass the LSAT, earn a JD from an ABA-accredited law school, be deemed of good moral character and fitness, pass the bar exam, pass the MPRE, and be approved for admission to the bar.
The Commission oversees the administration of the Uniform Bar Exam (“UBE”) in Nebraska twice yearly for admission by examination. Applicants may apply for admission on motion if already licensed in another state or by UBE score transfer. The motion application process may take up to 120 days.
Does Nebraska require the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE)? A. Yes. You are required to receive a scaled score of 85 or higher for admission.
The most common minimum passing score is 85, with 80 as a close second.
In other states, one organization serves both functions. In every state, however, there is at least one entity that exists to streamline and support the legal profession and to engage with the public to assure confidence in and accountability for attorneys.
The passing score for the bar examination is currently a score of 270 on a single administration of the examination, determined by the scaled score on the MBE (multiple choice) weighted at 50 percent, the scaled score on the MPT weighted at 20 percent, and the scaled score on the MEE weighted at 30 percent.
(If you want to take an MPRE exam under timed conditions, complete 60 questions in two hours and aim for a 34!) If you need an 85, you should aim for 60% correct. A 60% correct is about 30 correct out of 50 or about 36 correct out of 60.
