Common tasks on the MPT include drafting legal memos, client letters, or court briefs.
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.
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 West Virginia Bar Exam typically includes two MPT tasks.
Each MPT task is allotted 90 minutes for completion.
