The NCBE Anticipates Returning to In-Person Testing for the February 2022 Bar Exam
June 2, 2021
The National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE) announced that the February 2022 bar exam materials will be made available to jurisdictions for in-person testing only, unless restrictions by a public health authority prohibit a jurisdiction from administering the February exam in person.
July 2021 will be the last time the NCBE offers states an online bar exam option.
The National Conference, which develops the three main bar exam components, has since October 2020 given states the option to choose between remote and onsite exams due to the COVID-19 pandemic. That means the upcoming July 2021 test will be the final national online bar exam.
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the bar exam had been administered by each jurisdiction in person, in a secure, proctored testing environment. The July 2021 bar exam is expected to be the last that includes a remote testing option; 29 jurisdictions plan to administer that exam remotely, while 24 will administer it in person.
NCBE has advocated for in-person testing as the best mode of administration of the bar exam. The NCBE has stated that remote exams create challenges for exam security and uniformity.
