15-204. Questions.

The bar examination shall include hypothetical questions requiring essay answers, the MBE and the MPRE. The Supreme Court will establish a minimum passing scaled score for the MPRE. Beginning in July 1997, the bar examination may also include multi-state performance test questions. Questions shall not be generally designed to test knowledge uniquely based upon local case or statutory law; however, subjects of substantial local interest may be included. Questions will not be labeled as to subject matter. Sufficient time will be allowed for answering the questions to permit the applicant to make an analysis of the facts and to prepare answers.

[As amended, effective July 24, 1996.]
