NOTE: Be careful when reviewing examinee answers for other years not listed above. We have intentionally omitted certain exam years because the MEE was not used in that jurisdiction at the time. For example, DO NOT use any New York bar exam released essay answers prior to July 2016 – when NY switched to the UBE format. These were omitted because New York administered different state specific essays prior to that exam – those examinee answers were based on New York specific law.
