Virginia Bar Exam Results from February 2017 are posted

The Feb 2017 Virginia Bar Exam results have been posted at the VBBE website here.

Looks like the overall pass rate was 53.19% , with first time test takers doing pretty good at 70.71%. Congratulations to George Mason University School of Law grads for having the highest overall pass rate at 92.86% and also for 100% of their first time takers passing. Good job to William and Mary and U. Richmond first time takers as well achieving a 100% pass rate. And of course, congratulations to everyone who passed!

If you did not pass, don’t despair. Take a couple days off and then think about the plan you used to study along with how much you studied. Do you feel you did enough? Maybe too much? Maybe not enough? The Virginia bar exam is one of (if not the most) difficult bars in the country and requires well laid out study strategies.

Hi, I was wondering what self-study materials you recommend for someone that only needs to take the DC essay day? I don’t have the funds to sign up for a bar course again, so I would really appreciate any suggestions.

The best materials for the MEE/MPT are the past exam questions from the ncbe. Additionally, the Rigos MEE and Rigos MPT books are very good resources and affordable too. Hope this helps. Good luck!
