The District of Columbia bar examination is the most generic bar exam in the country. There is absolutely no original material on the exam.  It consists of the six-hour Multistate Bar Examination (MBE), weighted 50%; two 90-minute Multistate Performance Test (MPT) problems, weighted 25%; and six 30-minute Multistate Essay Examination (MEE) questions, weighted 25%.

The successful applicant must achieve a combined scaled score of 266. Applicants also must pass the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE) with a scaled score of 75.

The rules of the D.C. Court of Appeals specify that the bar exam may cover the following subjects, but not all of them are tested on the MBE and MEE:

• administrative law
• agency
• business associations (agency, partnerships, corporations, LLCs)
• civil procedure
• conflicts of law
• constitutional law
• contracts, including UCC Article 2 sales
