The news is out: sometime in 2025-26, the Bar Exam will undergo its most radical set of changes in 50 years. The MBE, MEE, and MPT will be removed by the National Conference of Bar Examiners and replaced with an all-new "Integrated Bar Exam." These changes are dramatic and significant for everyone planning to take the bar exam 5 years from now and beyond.

Megan and Jackson have been reviewing the reports and provide you with the details of the NCBE Testing Task Force decisions. We explain what is changing, what will remain the same, and what it means to bar takers around the country.

If you plan to take the bar exam in 2025 or later, this is information you MUST be aware of!
