344: 11 Things You Need to Know About the NextGen UBE

Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! If you're planning to take the bar exam in July 2026 or February 2027, your exam will look quite different from the current one. The Uniform Bar Exam overhaul includes changes in the structure, the question types, the timing, the grading – basically everything except the stakes. Today we're walking you through 11 things that every bar taker needs to know about the NextGen UBE. Some of these are structural and some are strategic, and at least a couple might genuinely surprise you.

In this episode, we discuss:

Exam structure changes and new question types
What subjects will be tested
How the new grading system works
Preparing for a fully computer-based exam
How the exam will test practical lawyering skills beyond just legal knowledge
