Thread: Mpre question - is it normal to finish early

  1.   Mpre question - is it normal to finish early #1
    Hi, I am doing pretty well with my mpre practice questions. However, I always finish early (about 1 hour 30 minutes) and I was wondering if that is normal or maybe the past practice questions are too easy and don't really reflect the real ones on mpre??

    ps. I am using the practice questions provided by barbri 2004 edition

    I think it's normal to finish early. you can't leave more than 30 minutes earlier tho.. just check your answers again

    Almost everyone finished early when I took it. Even if you don't know the answer, staring at it for an extra ten minutes doesn't help.

    Do lots of practice questions and you'll be fine. Unlike bar exam prep, I wouldn't worry so much about timing a practice exam. Just do practice questions and go over the answers you get wrong very carefully. The MPRE is not a time crunch for the vast majority of people.

    Bar exam prep will be a whole 'nother animal.

    I finished the MPRE in 35 minutes. I passed with flying colors. If you are naturally a fast reader and feel you know the answer, then go with it. Changing your mind is never a good thing. Good Luck.

    I finished extremely early too and I did fine. I don't think time is an indication of how you'll do. Some people just read more quickly than others.

    I also finished very quickly. I don't think the MPRE is a time-constrained test, so no worries if you walk out of there very quickly.

    Yeah, it is normal to finish early.

    Yes. I finished early, and I don't usually finish tests early. I also finished the bar early, and had some time to go back and look over my essay answers!
