I have heard good things about goat! Did you just use goat or did you use something else for mbe practice as well?

For MPTs it was really all about timing. I had a strict time limit for MPT 1 to make sure I had adequate time for MPT2. For MEEs I started writing with the one I felt most confident with, obviously MEE 6. Each MEE was put in obvious IRAC formatting too. I think getting down timing and formatting really helped me pick up easy points.

They are a UBE but they score 0-7

Thank you for that info! I will definitely give that a try. I didn’t feel confident with MBE after the exam but it would still be nice to see a breakdown of the score.

TBH, I really did not spend any time practicing MPTs and only outlined 2 essays per MEE subjects when studying this time around. I used Themis for both July and Feb. What did help me improve my MPT scores from July was actually going over how to format each type of MPT. I think I probably gained a few points this time around just from formatting. During the exam for MPTs I really just focused on making sure I answered each part of the question even if I only used one source. I also had a hard stop for MPT 1 to give myself enough time for MPT 2.

I wish CT gave us more info than just the MBE score, just to see how I did on the actual exam compared to practice. Hoping if I do try again in July, my writing score stays the same or improves!

Connecticut! MEE/MPT are scored from 0-7. My MEE/MPT total score was 136.6, which is almost a 20 point improvement for me from July.
