Learn first
Do subject sets in coached mode until each subject is steady. A full exam taken on material you have not studied only tells you what you already know.
MBE practice exam
Sit a full-length timed exam, then review every question.
Build a timed multiple-choice exam from 4008 original fact-pattern questions in the seven subjects the MBE tests. You choose a full 200-question simulation, a single 100-question session, or a 35-question pacing check. Nothing is explained until the exam ends, as on the real test, and then every question is reviewed with the rule and a reason for each choice. The questions are written for this course. They are not NCBE items, so the score is a practice measure and not a prediction of a scaled score.

Real exam and this simulation
What matches the MBE and what does not.
The timing and the subject mix follow NCBE's description. The questions do not. Neither does the score. The table lays out each difference plainly, including the unscored questions the real exam mixes in and this one does not, so that you read your results the right way and never mistake a practice percentage for a scaled score.
| Feature | The MBE, per NCBE | This exam |
|---|---|---|
| Length | 200 questions, 175 scored and 25 unscored pretest questions | Your choice of 200, 100, or 35 questions, all counted |
| Sessions | Morning and afternoon sessions of three hours each, 100 questions in each, with no scheduled breaks inside a session | The same two three-hour sessions of 100 questions, with the clock stopped between them |
| Subjects | Seven: Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, Torts | The same seven, spread evenly, so a 200-question exam has 28 or 29 from each |
| Questions | Written and pretested by NCBE | Original questions written for this course, not NCBE items |
| Score | Scaled and equated by NCBE across administrations | A plain percent correct, which cannot be converted to a scaled score |
Using it well
A timed exam is a measurement, so take it under real conditions.
Sit it whole
Take a full 200 questions with the clock running, no notes, and no pausing. Stamina and pacing are skills. Only a whole exam trains them.
Review every miss
Read the rule and the reason for every choice, including the ones you got right by guessing. Then run the missed-question set in the question bank.
Watch subjects, not totals
One number hides which subject is failing. The subject table shows where the next study hours should go.
After an exam, the missed-question set rebuilds a practice session from what you got wrong, the readiness dashboard tracks your subjects across attempts, and the study guide holds the rules behind each question.
