So, what aggregate, raw written score does one need to pass based on MBE performance? Based on February numbers, here's the answer:

It really reinforces the notion that doing well on the essays should be more of a primary focus once you get to a certain level on the MBE. Especially because they holistically grade the essays, so if you spot an issue, state a rule have have a sentence or two of analysis you probably get all the points for that issue.

Especially after a semester spent in Legal Drafting.

Just ran some numbers based on my practice averages, and my post-exam anxiety has been assuaged. At least for today. Thanks dude, congrats on making through the bar, and enjoy the rest of your summer. Hopefully I'll see you in December for the swearing in ceremony.
