Enter the number of correct answers out of 60 into the calculator to determine the scaled MPRE score. The MPRE score is scaled to a range of 50 to 150.
MPRE Score Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the scaled MPRE score:
SS = CA * CF
Variables:
- SS is the scaled score (out of 150)
- CA is the number of correct answers (out of 60)
- CF is the conversion factor (2.5 for this example)
To calculate the scaled MPRE score, multiply the number of correct answers by the conversion factor. The conversion factor is determined by the National Conference of Bar Examiners to scale the raw score to a score range of 50 to 150.
What is the MPRE?
The Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE) is a two-hour, 60-question multiple-choice examination designed to measure the knowledge and understanding of established standards related to a lawyer’s professional conduct. It is required for admission to the bars of most US jurisdictions.
How to Calculate MPRE Score?
The following steps outline how to calculate the scaled MPRE score:
- First, determine the number of correct answers (CA) out of 60.
- Next, use the conversion factor (CF) provided by the National Conference of Bar Examiners, which is typically 2.5.
- Next, gather the formula from above = SS = CA * CF.
- Finally, calculate the scaled MPRE score (SS).
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem:
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
number of correct answers (CA) = 40
conversion factor (CF) = 2.5
The scaled score (SS) would be calculated as follows:
SS = CA * CF = 40 * 2.5 = 100
