	The Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE)
		The MPRE is a multiple choice examination containing 50 questions, administered by the American College of Testing (ACT) on behalf of the NCBE three times each calendar year (March, August, and November).
		In February 2002 the American Bar Association (ABA) adopted certain changes to the Model Rules of Professional Conduct (MPRC) as a result of the recommendations of the Commission on Evaluation of the Rules of Professional Conduct (popularly known as "Ethics 2000").
		The examination can be taken either: (A) within three years before the date the applicant takes the examination prescribed in Rule 8.08(a) [the Bar Examination], which is successfully completed, or (B) within one year after the date of publication of the applicant's successful completion of the examination prescribed in Rule 8.08(a) [the Bar Examination].

	Multistate Professional Responsibility
		The purpose of the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination is to measure the applicant's knowledge and comprehension of fundamental standards related to a lawyer's professional conduct.
		To the extent that questions of professional responsibility arise in the context of procedural or evidentiary issues, such as the availability of litigation sanctions or the scope of the attorney-client evidentiary privilege, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Federal Rules of Evidence will be assumed to apply, unless otherwise stated.
		The ABA Model Code of Professional Responsibility, the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct, and the ABA Model Code of Judicial Conduct are available from the American Bar Association at 750 N. Lake Shore Dr., Chicago, IL 60611 (312/988-5522).

		The MPRE is developed by a six-member Drafting Committee comprised of recognized experts in the area of professional responsibility.

	Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		California uses the MPRE even though it is the only jurisdiction that has not adopted either of the two sets of professional responsibility rules proposed by the American Bar Association — and California rules differ from the ABA rules in many ways.
		Illinois only recognizes scores from the two MPRE administrations immediately prior to its bar exam, which effectively means that a student who wishes to be admitted in Illinois should not take the MPRE more than nine months before graduation.
		MPRE scores from any jurisdiction in the United States are automatically recognized by all other jurisdictions (assuming that any special timing requirements are met), although in order to be admitted to a bar, an applicant must meet that jurisdiction's minimum passing score.
