STATE BAR STAFF CONTACTS Telephone (800) 204-2222 or (512) 427-1463 and the extension number, as noted for each department, unless another telephone number is given.
You can take the bar exam five times in Texas. Note that ing to Texas's Board of Law Examiners, if you sit for any part of the exam, it counts as one of your attempts. If you need to retake the bar exam more than five times, Texas is a state that allows you to take the bar exam again with special permission.
The UBE has three parts: (1) the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE), (2) the Multistate Essay Examination (MEE), and (3) the Multistate Performance Test (MPT). The highest possible scaled score over these three parts is 400, and a test-taker must achieve a scaled score of 270 or higher to pass in Texas.
A UBE score is “earned” on the last day of the exam administration. Scores that were earned more than five years ago cannot be transferred. Once you submit your UBE Transfer Application, we will conduct a character and fitness investigation. This investigation can take up to nine months.
