Bar Exam Scores

Position: The MSBA opposes increasing the score required to pass the bar examination.

The resolution states that the Bar opposes such an increase because:

  1. it has not been demonstrated that increasing the score will increase competency of Minnesota lawyers; and
  2. the increase may disproportionately impact persons of color who sit for the bar exam.

-Approved by the General Assembly 6/23/2000-
