Enter the number of correct answers and the total number of questions into the calculator to determine your MBE (Multistate Bar Examination) scaled score.
MBE Score Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the MBE scaled score.
SS = (CA / TQ) * 200
Variables:
- SS is the scaled score
- CA is the number of correct answers
- TQ is the total number of questions
To calculate the MBE scaled score, divide the number of correct answers by the total number of questions and then multiply by 200.
What is an MBE Scaled Score?
The MBE scaled score is a standard scoring system used to compare scores across different administrations of the Multistate Bar Examination. The scaling process adjusts scores to account for differences in difficulty across different test versions. The scaled score is used by most jurisdictions as part of the bar examination.
How to Calculate MBE Scaled Score?
The following steps outline how to calculate the MBE Scaled Score.
- First, determine the number of correct answers (CA).
- Next, determine the total number of questions (TQ).
- Use the formula SS = (CA / TQ) * 200 to calculate the scaled score (SS).
- Finally, enter the values into the calculator to verify the scaled score.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
Number of correct answers (CA) = 140
Total number of questions (TQ) = 200
