Torts Topics Tested on the Multistate Essay Exam (MEE) Between 2011-2020

The Multistate Essay Exam (MEE) is the essay portion of the UBE, testing the applicant’s knowledge of 12 areas of substantive law through a series of six 30-minute essays. It is administered on the afternoon of the first day of the UBE in one three-hour session. Missouri and North Dakota became the first two jurisdictions to adopt the UBE, administering the first UBE in February 2011. By June 2020, over 67% of the jurisdictions in the United States had adopted the UBE. The list of UBE jurisdictions continues to grow, so always check the NCBE’s website (www.ncbex.org) for the most up-to-date list of UBE jurisdictions.
