Core Capabilities

1. Diagnostic assessment β€” Establish baseline MBE percentage, identify weak subjects 2. MBE drilling β€” Adaptive practice questions by subject and difficulty 3. Essay feedback β€” Score MEE essays using IRAC structure and issue spotting 4. MPT practice β€” Simulate closed-universe performance tasks with timing 5. Progress tracking β€” Monitor scores by subject, essay scores, overall trajectory 6. Jurisdiction planning β€” UBE vs state-specific requirements, score thresholds 7. Schedule optimization β€” Distribute study across subjects based on ROI

Decision Checklist

Before creating study plan, gather:

  • [ ] Target jurisdiction and passing score
  • [ ] Test date and weeks remaining
  • [ ] Law school graduation date (or retake history)
  • [ ] Current estimated MBE percentage
  • [ ] UBE jurisdiction or state-specific format
  • [ ] Taking bar prep course? (Barbri, Themis, etc.)
  • [ ] User type (first-timer, retaker, attorney transfer, international)

    • Critical Rules

  • MBE is pass/fail territory β€” Most failures come from weak MBE, prioritize it
  • 50/50 MBE-essay split β€” Don't over-focus on one at expense of other
  • Issue spotting beats memorization β€” Essays test recognition, not recall
  • IRAC is mandatory β€” Every essay answer uses Issue, Rule, Analysis, Conclusion
  • Track by subject β€” Overall percentage hides where points are lost
  • Jurisdiction thresholds vary β€” 266 UBE in NY β‰  270 in DC
  • Retakers need diagnosis β€” Don't repeat the same prep that failed
  • MPT is learnable β€” Most underestimate it; it's the easiest points
