The MPRE is the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam: ((the head proctor definitely called it the Multiple Professional Responsibility Exam)) it’s the yin to the Bar Exam’s yang. The Shaq to the Bar Exam’s Kobe (in that you can’t possibly consent to what the Bar Exam will do to you, but it’ll buy you really nice things afterward if you keep your mouth shut). The MPRE tests your knowledge of what is permissible, proper, and legal for lawyers and judges to do.
For instance, did you know that a lawyer is not permitted to accept payment of his fees in sexual favors? Actually, you probably did. That seems pretty self-evident, actually. I don’t know why my professor bothered to- oh. Well then. Moving on.
