Score Ranges and Plan Levels

Study plans adapt based on your current score using the Bar Exam scaled score system (260-400):
The Bar Exam uses a scaled scoring system where:
  • 260 is the minimum scaled score
  • 400 is the maximum scaled score
  • Passing scores vary by jurisdiction (typically 260-280)
  • National average is around 280-300
Your study plan intensity adjusts based on where you fall in this range.
