To be eligible to take the Arkansas Bar Exam, applicants must have a Juris Doctor (JD) degree from an American Bar Association (ABA)-accredited law school (Option B). Additionally, passing the MPRE with a minimum score of 85 is required for admission to the bar (Option C). U.S. citizenship is not a requirement (Option D), and an undergraduate degree alone (Option A) does not meet the eligibility criteria.
Applicants who have a JD from a non-ABA accredited law school (Option B) are generally not eligible to take the Arkansas Bar Exam, regardless of their MPRE score. A JD from an ABA-accredited law school is required, along with passing the MPRE. The other options describe applicants who meet the educational and MPRE requirements (Options A, C, D).
All applicants must pass a character and fitness review as part of the eligibility process (Option A). Graduates of non-ABA accredited law schools are generally not eligible unless they qualify under specific rules or exceptions (Option B). There is no specific time limit (like three years) for completing a JD before applying for the exam (Option C). A JD from an ABA-accredited law school is mandatory, regardless of legal experience (Option D).
The minimum passing score for the MPRE required for admission to the Arkansas Bar is 85 (Option C). This is a mandatory requirement for all applicants, regardless of their other qualifications.
To be eligible to sit for the Arkansas Bar Exam, applicants must have earned a Juris Doctor (JD) from an ABA-accredited law school (Option C). This is a strict requirement. Degrees from state-accredited law schools or foreign institutions (Options A and B) do not fulfill the eligibility criteria unless specific exceptions apply. Legal experience alone (Option D) does not substitute for the required educational background.
