Common tasks on the MPT include drafting legal memos, client letters, or court briefs.
Candidates are given a "File" containing client information and a "Library" with relevant statutes, cases, and other legal resources needed to complete the task.
The MPT is designed to assess a candidate's ability to perform real-world legal tasks, such as drafting a memo or brief, based on provided materials.
The West Virginia Bar Exam typically includes two MPT tasks.
Each MPT task is allotted 90 minutes for completion.
