INTRODUCTION AND EXPLANATIONS

I must start off with a disclaimer. This analysis is primarily based on the utilization of automated scripts to calculate words, word counts and other information. While these
calculations are deemed reliable, no representation is being made as to the accuracy of the calculations. Accordingly, keep in mind that there can be instances where the words
or word counts are not accurate. All words are converted to lower-case for comparison purposes. In addition, I do not correct typos in essays - if a word is mis-spelled, it will be
reported that way. This can sometimes result in odd results. The analysis compares both laptop (typed) essays and handwritten essays (transcribed). At the moment, there are
no distinctions made between typed and handwritten essays - at some point in the future I may make such distinctions if the analysis warrants it. Please also keep in mind that
the conversion of PDF essays to text and the transcription of the written essays may result in some words to be improperly reported or misspelled.

For each MEE Essay/MPT, there is a one page graph, a one page statistics chart, and a two page written explanation. Although this analysis is lengthy, you should read the
entire analysis and review the graphs and charts. By studying this information, you can pinpoint problems with your Essays/MPT. More detailed information on the graphs and
charts is in the Chart and Statistics explanations below.
On the charts and graphs, the Flesch Reading Ease test and the Flesch–Kincaid Grade Level test are designed to indicate comprehension difficulty when reading a passage of
contemporary academic English. On the Flesch Reading Ease test, lower scores indicate material that is more difficult to read. Reader's Digest magazine has a readability
index of about 65, Time magazine scores about 52, an average year 7 student's (eleven years old) written assignment has a readability test of 60-70 (and a reading grade level
of 6-7) and the Harvard Law Review has a general readability score in the low 30s.

The Flesch–Kincaid Grade Level test reports the number of years of education generally required to understand this text. For example, a score of 8.2 would indicate that the text
is expected to be understandable by an average student in 8th grade (usually around ages 13–14 in the United States of America). A score of 12 would indicate that the text is
expected to be understandable by an average student in the 12th grade (senior year of High School - usually around ages 17-18 in the United States of America)

Generally, the graphs and statistics are based on Essays/MPTs of the 24 examinees who failed the Feb 2017 New York UBE bar examination and submitted their MEE
Essays/MPTs to me. The examinee answer comparisons do not include the released above average essays since I have no scores for these released above-average answers.
However, in certain instances, some graphs and statistics compare your Essay/MPT statistics to the released above-average answers. Please keep in mind that the smaller
the essay sample, the decreased statistical significance of these graphs and charts.
The 'Essay to Question vs Score' graph shows what percentage of words from each examinee's essay that appeared in the Essay Question versus the score received. The
purpose of this graph is to determine whether there is a trend or relationship between scores and the amount of words an examinee uses in an essay answer that are also in
the Question. The lower the Percentage of Essay to Word, the less an examinee matched the facts in the Question to the examinee's answer. More detailed information on this
is in the Chart and Statistics explanations below.
The 'Grade Level vs Score' graph shows the Flesch–Kincaid Grade Level from each examinee's essay versus the score received. The purpose of this graph is to determine
whether there is a trend or relationship between scores and the calculated Flesch–Kincaid Grade Level of each examinee's essay answer. Keep in mind that this graph only
compares the essays submitted to me - the released above average answers are not included in this analysis.
The 'Essay to Answer 1 vs Score' graph shows what percentage of words from each examinee's essay that appeared in the first released above average essay answer versus
the score received. This analysis does not examine the quality of the content, merely the content itself. However, logic would suggest that examinees who used more of the
same words as the released above average answers would generally have a higher score since using more of the same words indicates the examinee covered more of the
same issues as the released above average answers. The purpose of this graph is to determine whether there is a trend or relationship between scores and the amount of
words an examinee uses in an essay answer that are also in first above average essay answer.

The 'Essay to Answer 2 vs Score' graph shows what percentage of words from each examinee's essay that appeared in the second released above average essay answer
versus the score received. The purpose of this graph is to determine whether there is a trend or relationship between scores and the amount of words an examinee uses in an
essay answer that are also in second above average essay answer. Logic would suggest that this trend should be similar to the 'Essay to Answer 1 vs Score' trend.

The 'IRAC Intro Sentences vs Score' graph shows the IRAC introduction by sentence percentage from each examinee's essay versus the score received. The IRAC
Introduction percentage is calculated by determining how many sentences in an essay started with an IRAC Introduction and then comparing this to the number of overall
sentences in the essay. For example, if half of an examinee's sentences started with one of these IRAC phrases, the IRAC Intro Sentence percentage would be 50%. The
purpose of this graph is to determine whether there is a trend or relationship between the percentage of IRAC phraseology used in an essay answer and the examinee's essay
score. Keep in mind that the released above average answers are not included in this analysis.
The 'IRAC Intros vs Score' graph shows the number of different IRAC introductions used in each examinee's essay versus the score received. The IRAC Intro amount is
calculated by determining how many different IRAC Intro phrases were used (out of the 35 IRAC Intro phrases). The purpose of this graph is to determine whether there is a
trend or relationship between the overall number of IRAC Intros used in an essay answer and the examinee's essay score. The released above average answers are not
included in this analysis.
The 'Different Words vs Score' graph shows the number of different words used in each examinee's essay versus the score received. The purpose of this graph is to determine
whether there is a trend or relationship between the number of different words an examinee uses in an essay answer and the examinee's essay score. The released above
average answers are not included in this analysis.
The 'Word Count vs Score' graph shows the total number of words used in each examinee's essay versus the score received. The purpose of this graph is to determine
whether there is a trend or relationship between the total number of words an examinee uses in an essay answer and the examinee's essay score. The released above average
answers are not included in this analysis.
Please also note that each above average answer is likely from a different examinee. Therefore, you will see differences in the number of IRAC introductions and other
information between the above average answers for each essay.

ESSAY #1 CHART AND STATISTICS EXPLANATIONS: CONTRACTS QUESTION - SCORE: 59.09

The 'Essay Statistics' chart reports a variety of statistics pertaining to Essay #1. The first data column reports your essay statistics. For example, your Essay #1 consisted of 503
words. The second data column reports the essay statistics for the first released above-average answer for Essay #1. For example, the first released above average answer for
Essay #1 had a Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level of 12 as compared to your Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level of 12.7. The third data column reports the essay statistics for the second
released above-average answer for Essay #1. For example, the second released above average answer for Essay #1 consisted of 22 sentences compared to 18 sentences in
your essay. The fourth data column reports the essay statistics for the highest scoring answer (best) submitted to me for Essay #1 (based on 24 examinees). For example, the
best answer for Essay #1 had an IRAC Intro to Sentence of of 31% compared to 27.8% in your essay.

The next four data columns of the 'Essay Statistics' chart report the average (AVG), maximum (MAX), minimum (MIN) and rank (RANK) essay statistics based on the essays of
24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me (the released essays are not counted in these statistics). As a result, the AVG columns show the
mean score for each essay statistic based on the Essay #1 essays of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me. For example, the
average number of IRAC Intro to Sentences (number of IRAC intros divided by number of sentences) among the 24 examinees was 28.9% (meaning an average of 71.1% of
the examinee sentences did not begin with one of the IRAC Introductory Phrases listed above). On this essay, your total words of 503 words was 41 words more than the
average Essay #1 words of 462 (based on the 24 submitted scores). Keep in mind these averages are only from those that failed - they may not accurately reflect the essay
statistics of all examinees. Please also note the analysis does not distinguish between laptop and handwritten essay scores.

The MAX and MIN columns report the highest score and lowest statistics for that category based on the Essay #1 essays of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and
submitted their essays to me. Again, keep in mind these maximum and minimum numbers are only from those that failed - they may not accurately reflect the statistics of all
examinees. On this essay, your total words of 503 words was 367 words more than the minimum Essay #1 words of 136 words. In contrast, your total words of 503 words was
343 words less than the maximum Essay #1 words of 846 words (based on the 24 submitted scores).

The RANK column reports your rank for that category when compared to the scores of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their scores to me. For
example, on Essay #1, your rank of 4 for 'Essay #1: Words per Sentence' means that 3 of the 24 examinees' Words per Sentence for Essay #1 were higher than your W ords per
Sentence of 27.9 while 20 of the examinees' Words per Sentence for Essay #1 were lower than your W ords per Sentence of 27.9 words per sentence. Meanwhile, the first
released above average answer for Essay #1 contained approximately 22.2 words per sentence and the second released above average answer for Essay #1 contained
approximately 20.9 words per sentence.

The 'Word Size Breakdown' chart reports compares your Essay #1 word sizes to the words in the Essay #1 Question; the two released above average answers; and the
averages of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me. For example, in your Essay #1 answer, 79.22% of your words were seven letters
or less. Meanwhile, in the Essay #1 Question, 84.78% of the words were seven letters or less. In the first released above average answer for Essay #1, 78.37% of the words
were seven letters or less. In the second released above average answer for Essay #1, 75.57% of the words were seven letters or less. For the 24 examinees, on average,
77.8% of the words in their essay were seven letters or less. Therefore, your essay contained 1.4% more words that were seven letters or less as compared to the the 24
examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me.

The 'Score Comparison Statistics' chart compares a number of statistics to the essay scores. The first row reports your essay statistics (for example, your essay had an Essay
to Question % of 39.1% and a score of 59.09. This means that 39.1% of the words in the Question appeared in your essay answer). The second data row reports the score
comparison statistics for the Essay #1 average of the 24 examinees who submitted essays. For example, these 24 essays had an Essay to Question % of 42.7% and an average
score of 47.88. Other statistics include Word Count vs Score, Grade Level vs. Score, and IRAC to Sentence vs. Score. For example, these 24 essays had a average Flesch-
Kincaid Grade Level of 10.6 (with average score of 47.88).

The 'Breakdown by Quartile' section of the 'score Comparison Statistics' chart compares the statistics to essay scores based on Quartile averages of the 24 examinees who
submitted essays. For example, the 1st quartile average (0-25 percentile) for W ord Count was 371 words with a score of 43; the 2nd quartile average (25-50 percentile) for
Grade Level was 10.6 with a score of 48.1; the 3rd quartile average (50-75 percentile) for Essay to Question percentage was 47.83% with a score of 51.5; and the 4th quartile
average (75-100 percentile) for IRAC to Sentence percentage was 45.45% with a score of 45.6. Keep in mind that the smaller the essay sample, the decreased statistical
significance of the quartile breakdowns.

The 'Minimum and Maximum' section of the 'score Comparison Statistics' chart shows the highest and lowest statistics for each category along with their corresponding scores.
For example, the essay with the highest word count consisted of 846 words with a score of 47.19; the essay with the lowest Grade Level had a Grade Level of 6.7 with a score of
43.92; the essay with the highest Essay to Question percentage was 71.01% with a score of 47.19; and the essay with the lowest IRAC to Sentence percentage was 0% with a
score of 44.63. Again, keep in mind that the smaller the essay sample, the decreased statistical significance of these superlatives.

The 'IRAC Introductory Phrases' chart reports how often you used certain IRAC phrases in your answer and compares your essay answer to the best answer and the two above
average answers. For example, for the phrase 'The issue', your essay used this IRAC phrase 0 times in your essay (Please note that the phrase 'The issue' covers instances of
'The issue is' or 'The issue is whether' or 'The issue here' or any other variant of 'The issue...'). In contrast, the first released above average answer used this IRAC phrase 0
times and the second released above average essay used this IRAC phrase 0 times. Among the 24 examinees, 9 of the 35 of the IRAC Intros I examined were used.

In Essay #1, you used a total of 5 IRAC Introductory statements stemming from 4 different IRAC Phrases. In contrast, the first released above average essay used a total of 4
IRAC Introductory statements stemming from 4 different IRAC Phrases. The second released above average essay used a total of 9 IRAC Introductory statements stemming
from 6 different IRAC Phrases. The above average essays used approximately 23% more IRAC Intros than your essay.

The 'Top 20 words the above average answers used that you did not' chart compares the words in your answer to an average of the words in the two above average answers.
For example, the above average answers used the word 'ucc' an average of 8 times in each of the released above average Essay #1 answers while you never used this word in
your Essay #1 answer. The list is sorted based on how often the words were used. For example, the 2nd most used word mentioned in the above average answers that you did
not use was the word 'hold'. It was used an average of 4.5 times in each of the released above average Essay #1 answers while you never used this word in your Essay #1
answer.

Please note that this chart is not filtered. The chart may report abbreviations or common words such as prepositions or names. Regardless, it is important to be aware what
words you did not use that the above average answers used, even if they are abbreviations or common words such as propositions. You should incorporate such common
words into your vocabulary when answering New York bar essay questions. By examining the differences, your goal should be to emulate the above average answer writing
style in your essay writing. For example, any word relating to the question or a legal principle is a topic or subject you likely missed in your answer.

The 'Top 20 words you used that the above average answers did not' chart compares the words in your answer to an average of the words in the two above average answers.
For example, you used the word 'parties' a total of 4 times in your Essay #1 answer while the above average answers never used this word. As with the prior chart, please keep
in mind that this chart is not filtered, and common words or prepositions are included in the list.
The 'Top 15 words in the Question that both above average answers used but you did not' chart compares the words in your answer to an average of the words in the two above
average answers. For example, the word 'had' was used in the Question a total of 3 times. Each above average answer used this word in their answer, but you never used this
word in your answer.
The 'Top 10 words in above average answer 1 that you did not use' chart compares the words in your answer to the word in the first above average answer and reports the top
ten words that the above average answer used that you did not. For example, the first above average answer used the word 'no' a total of 9 times in its answer, but you never
used this word in your answer. If any of these words were also not used by the other above average answer, they are marked with an asterisk.

The 'Top 10 words in above average answer 2 that you did not use' chart compares the words in your answer to the word in the second above average answer and reports the
top ten words that the above average answer used that you did not. For example, the first above average answer used the word 'while *' a total of 5 times in its answer, but you
never used this word in your answer. If any of these words were also not used by the other above average answer, they are marked with an asterisk.

The 'Top 10 words in the best answer that you did not use' chart compares the words in your answer to the word in the best answer and reports the top ten words that the best
answer used that you did not. For example, the best answer used the word 'certain' a total of 9 times in its answer, but you never used this word in your answer.

The words on these lists are words you should consider adding to your essay vocabulary, especially when dealing with Contracts type questions. For example, the 2nd most
used word in the released above average answers that you never used was the word 'hold'. It was used an average of 4.5 times in each of the released above average Essay #1
answers while you never used this word in your Essay #1 answer.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, it compares what percentage of words in your essay appeared in the Question and in best and the above average answers. The Essay
to Question Comparison reports what percentage of the Question words appeared in the essay answers. For example, your Essay #1 answer contained 39.1% of the words in
the Question. The average among the 24 examinees was 42.7% of the words in the Question. In contrast, the first released above average answer contained 55.8% of the words
in the Question. The second released above average answer contained 48.6% of the words in the Question. For this Essay to Question Comparison, if your percentage is lower
than the above average answers, it means that you did not match the facts in the question to your answer as well as the above average answers.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, the 'Essay to Answer 1 Comparison' compares what percentage of words in the essays that appear in the first released above average
answer. For example, your Essay #1 answer contained 47.1% of the words in the first released above average answer. The average among the 24 examinees was 39.7% of the
words in the first released above average answer. In contrast, the second released above average answer contained 58.2% of the words contained in the first released above
average answer.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, the 'Essay to Answer 2 Comparison' compares what percentage of words in the essays that appear in the second released above
average answer. For example, your Essay #1 answer contained 40.7% of the words in the second released above average answer. The average among the 24 examinees was
36.7% of the words in the second released above average answer. In contrast, the first released above average answer contained 54.8% of the words contained in the second
released above average answer.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, the 'Essay to Best Ans. Comparison' compares what percentage of words in the essays that appear in the best answer. For example,
your Essay #1 answer contained 40.8% of the words in the best answer. The average among the 24 examinees was 40.2% of the words in the best answer. In contrast, the first
released above average answer contained 51% of the words contained in the best answer.

The Best Avg Top 3 Column reports the averages for the top 3 highest scoring answers (the two released NYBOLE answers and the highest scoring examinee answer). For the
NYBOLE answers, I estimate the final score, but I find the estimated final score is fairly accurate. These averages provide a better insight into what the average top essay/MPT
consists of. For example, your Essay #1 answer contained 503 words while the average number of words in the top 3 answers was 546 words.

The Issue Spotting Analysis shows the words/phrases that the graders were looking for. The 'With Word' column reports how many examinees used that word along with the
average points these examinees received (green is above passing while red is below passing). For example, about 2.7% of examinees used the word/phrase 'terminate' and
received an average of 25 points for their essays (whereas a passing MEE essay received 13.3 points).

MEE ANALYSIS
The purpose of the below analysis is to examine how well an MEE score corresponds with confirmable external sources such as the above average answers, point sheet, best
examinee answer, and the question itself. For example, if an examinee's MEE is highly correlated with these external sources, does the examinee receive a high grade?
Conversely, if an examinee's MEE is not highly correlated with these external sources, does the examinee receive a low grade? If another jurisdiction uses the same MEE for
their exam and releases above average exemplars, I also include these MEEs in the analysis (e.g. Arkansas is AR, Minnesota is MN). Examinees who participate in the
MEE/MPT Comparison should review cases where there is low correlation but a high score (for some insight on what to do) or a high correlation but a low score (for some
insight on what not to do). For example, if an exemplar has a low Essay to Point Sheet Comparison, what else did the grader find in that essay to warrant a high score? Since
the graders are probably constant with each exam, examinees can use this information to fashion a response similar to the responses that graders have graded favorably in the
past. On the below table, your MEE results are highlighted in yellow.

MPT #1 CHART AND STATISTICS EXPLANATIONS: BRIEF (FACTS/CONCLUSION) QUESTION - SCORE: 53.8

The 'Essay Statistics' chart reports a variety of statistics pertaining to MPT #1. The first data column reports your essay statistics. For example, your MPT #1 consisted of 904
words. The second data column reports the essay statistics for the first released above-average answer for MPT #1. For example, the first released above average answer for
MPT #1 had a Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level of 14.1 as compared to your Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level of 16.6. The third data column reports the essay statistics for the second
released above-average answer for MPT #1. For example, the second released above average answer for MPT #1 consisted of 44 sentences compared to 25 sentences in your
essay. The fourth data column reports the essay statistics for the highest scoring answer (best) submitted to me for MPT #1 (based on 24 examinees). For example, the best
answer for MPT #1 had an IRAC Intro to Sentence of of 9.1% compared to 12% in your essay.

The next four data columns of the 'Essay Statistics' chart report the average (AVG), maximum (MAX), minimum (MIN) and rank (RANK) essay statistics based on the essays of
24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me (the released essays are not counted in these statistics). As a result, the AVG columns show the
mean score for each essay statistic based on the MPT #1 essays of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me. For example, the
average number of IRAC Intro to Sentences (number of IRAC intros divided by number of sentences) among the 24 examinees was 23.8% (meaning an average of 76.2% of
the examinee sentences did not begin with one of the IRAC Introductory Phrases listed above). On this essay, your total words of 904 words was 188 words less than the
average MPT #1 words of 1092 (based on the 24 submitted scores). Keep in mind these averages are only from those that failed - they may not accurately reflect the essay
statistics of all examinees. Please also note the analysis does not distinguish between laptop and handwritten essay scores.

The MAX and MIN columns report the highest score and lowest statistics for that category based on the MPT #1 essays of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and
submitted their essays to me. Again, keep in mind these maximum and minimum numbers are only from those that failed - they may not accurately reflect the statistics of all
examinees. On this essay, your total words of 904 words was 530 words more than the minimum MPT #1 words of 374 words. In contrast, your total words of 904 words was
1414 words less than the maximum MPT #1 words of 2318 words (based on the 24 submitted scores).

The RANK column reports your rank for that category when compared to the scores of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their scores to me. For
example, on MPT #1, your rank of 4 for 'MPT #1: Words per Sentence' means that 3 of the 24 examinees' Words per Sentence for MPT #1 were higher than your W ords per
Sentence of 32 while 20 of the examinees' Words per Sentence for MPT #1 were lower than your W ords per Sentence of 32 words per sentence. Meanwhile, the first released
above average answer for MPT #1 contained approximately 26.4 words per sentence and the second released above average answer for MPT #1 contained approximately 35.4
words per sentence.

The 'Word Size Breakdown' chart reports compares your MPT #1 word sizes to the words in the MPT #1 Question; the two released above average answers; and the averages
of the 24 examinees that failed the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me. For example, in your MPT #1 answer, 65.56% of your words were seven letters or less.
Meanwhile, in the MPT #1 Question, 62.59% of the words were seven letters or less. In the first released above average answer for MPT #1, 62.15% of the words were seven
letters or less. In the second released above average answer for MPT #1, 65.14% of the words were seven letters or less. For the 24 examinees, on average, 66.3% of the
words in their essay were seven letters or less. Therefore, your essay contained 0.7% less words that were seven letters or less as compared to the the 24 examinees that failed
the Feb 2017 exam and submitted their essays to me.

The 'Score Comparison Statistics' chart compares a number of statistics to the essay scores. The first row reports your essay statistics (for example, your essay had an Essay
to Question % of 30.7% and a score of 53.8. This means that 30.7% of the words in the Question appeared in your essay answer). The second data row reports the score
comparison statistics for the MPT #1 average of the 24 examinees who submitted essays. For example, these 24 essays had an Essay to Question % of 29.6% and an average
score of 45.71. Other statistics include Word Count vs Score, Grade Level vs. Score, and IRAC to Sentence vs. Score. For example, these 24 essays had a average Flesch-
Kincaid Grade Level of 14.4 (with average score of 45.71).

The 'Breakdown by Quartile' section of the 'score Comparison Statistics' chart compares the statistics to essay scores based on Quartile averages of the 24 examinees who
submitted essays. For example, the 1st quartile average (0-25 percentile) for W ord Count was 919 words with a score of 40.5; the 2nd quartile average (25-50 percentile) for
Grade Level was 14.2 with a score of 50.9; the 3rd quartile average (50-75 percentile) for Essay to Question percentage was 37.56% with a score of 60.1; and the 4th quartile
average (75-100 percentile) for IRAC to Sentence percentage was 45.45% with a score of 58. Keep in mind that the smaller the essay sample, the decreased statistical
significance of the quartile breakdowns.

The 'Minimum and Maximum' section of the 'score Comparison Statistics' chart shows the highest and lowest statistics for each category along with their corresponding scores.
For example, the essay with the highest word count consisted of 2318 words with a score of 51.26; the essay with the lowest Grade Level had a Grade Level of 7.8 with a score
of 37.67; the essay with the highest Essay to Question percentage was 50.35% with a score of 80; and the essay with the lowest IRAC to Sentence percentage was 0% with a
score of 0. Again, keep in mind that the smaller the essay sample, the decreased statistical significance of these superlatives.

The 'IRAC Introductory Phrases' chart reports how often you used certain IRAC phrases in your answer and compares your essay answer to the best answer and the two above
average answers. For example, for the phrase 'The issue', your essay used this IRAC phrase 0 times in your essay (Please note that the phrase 'The issue' covers instances of
'The issue is' or 'The issue is whether' or 'The issue here' or any other variant of 'The issue...'). In contrast, the first released above average answer used this IRAC phrase 0
times and the second released above average essay used this IRAC phrase 0 times. Among the 24 examinees, 24 of the 35 of the IRAC Intros I examined were used.

The 'Top 20 words the above average answers used that you did not' chart compares the words in your answer to an average of the words in the two above average answers.
For example, the above average answers used the word 'roadsprinters' an average of 10 times in each of the released above average MPT #1 answers while you never used
this word in your MPT #1 answer. The list is sorted based on how often the words were used. For example, the 2nd most used word mentioned in the above average answers
that you did not use was the word 'an'. It was used an average of 5.5 times in each of the released above average MPT #1 answers while you never used this word in your MPT
#1 answer.

Please note that this chart is not filtered. The chart may report abbreviations or common words such as prepositions or names. Regardless, it is important to be aware what
words you did not use that the above average answers used, even if they are abbreviations or common words such as propositions. You should incorporate such common
words into your vocabulary when answering New York bar essay questions. By examining the differences, your goal should be to emulate the above average answer writing
style in your essay writing. For example, any word relating to the question or a legal principle is a topic or subject you likely missed in your answer.

The 'Top 20 words you used that the above average answers did not' chart compares the words in your answer to an average of the words in the two above average answers.
For example, you used the word 'road' a total of 4 times in your MPT #1 answer while the above average answers never used this word. As with the prior chart, please keep in
mind that this chart is not filtered, and common words or prepositions are included in the list.
The 'Top 15 words in the Question that both above average answers used but you did not' chart compares the words in your answer to an average of the words in the two above
average answers. For example, the word 'carlisle' was used in the Question a total of 26 times. Each above average answer used this word in their answer, but you never used
this word in your answer.
The 'Top 10 words in above average answer 1 that you did not use' chart compares the words in your answer to the word in the first above average answer and reports the top
ten words that the above average answer used that you did not. For example, the first above average answer used the word 'roadsprinters' a total of 36 times in its answer, but
you never used this word in your answer. If any of these words were also not used by the other above average answer, they are marked with an asterisk.

The 'Top 10 words in above average answer 2 that you did not use' chart compares the words in your answer to the word in the second above average answer and reports the
top ten words that the above average answer used that you did not. For example, the first above average answer used the word 'roadsprinters' a total of 32 times in its answer,
but you never used this word in your answer. If any of these words were also not used by the other above average answer, they are marked with an asterisk.

The 'Top 10 words in the best answer that you did not use' chart compares the words in your answer to the word in the best answer and reports the top ten words that the best
answer used that you did not. For example, the best answer used the word 'roadsprinters' a total of 13 times in its answer, but you never used this word in your answer.

The words on these lists are words you should consider adding to your essay vocabulary, especially when dealing with Brief (Facts/Conclusion) type questions. For example, the
2nd most used word in the released above average answers that you never used was the word 'an'. It was used an average of 5.5 times in each of the released above average
MPT #1 answers while you never used this word in your MPT #1 answer.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, it compares what percentage of words in your essay appeared in the Question and in best and the above average answers. The Essay
to Question Comparison reports what percentage of the Question words appeared in the essay answers. For example, your MPT #1 answer contained 30.7% of the words in the
Question. The average among the 24 examinees was 29.6% of the words in the Question. In contrast, the first released above average answer contained 50.7% of the words in
the Question. The second released above average answer contained 46.4% of the words in the Question. For this Essay to Question Comparison, if your percentage is lower
than the above average answers, it means that you did not match the facts in the question to your answer as well as the above average answers.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, the 'Essay to Answer 1 Comparison' compares what percentage of words in the essays that appear in the first released above average
answer. For example, your MPT #1 answer contained 37.2% of the words in the first released above average answer. The average among the 24 examinees was 36.8% of the
words in the first released above average answer. In contrast, the second released above average answer contained 58.8% of the words contained in the first released above
average answer.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, the 'Essay to Answer 2 Comparison' compares what percentage of words in the essays that appear in the second released above
average answer. For example, your MPT #1 answer contained 37.3% of the words in the second released above average answer. The average among the 24 examinees was
37% of the words in the second released above average answer. In contrast, the first released above average answer contained 59.1% of the words contained in the second
released above average answer.

In the 'Word Comparison Statistics' chart, the 'Essay to Best Ans. Comparison' compares what percentage of words in the essays that appear in the best answer. For example,
your MPT #1 answer contained 44.5% of the words in the best answer. The average among the 24 examinees was 48.3% of the words in the best answer. In contrast, the first
released above average answer contained 66.5% of the words contained in the best answer.

The Best Avg Top 3 Column reports the averages for the top 3 highest scoring answers (the two released NYBOLE answers and the highest scoring examinee answer). For the
NYBOLE answers, I estimate the final score, but I find the estimated final score is fairly accurate. These averages provide a better insight into what the average top essay/MPT
consists of. For example, your MPT #1 answer contained 904 words while the average number of words in the top 3 answers was 1942 words.

NYS BAR EXAMINATION: FEB 2017
DATE OF REPORT: OCTOBER 21, 2017

MPT ANALYSIS
The NY Essays and MPT are graded holistically. This means that the grader writes nothing on the essay/MPT itself but instead assigns the holistic score after reading the
entire answer. Holistic grading is less reliable than Analytic grading. In Analytic grading, the grader fills out a detailed scorecard that covers all of the issues a model answer
should address. This is one of many reasons as to why the Essays/MPT are less reliable than the MBE. However, I regard MPT grading as more reliable than Essay Grading
because MPT graders rely on a Point Sheet released by NCBE that covers all of the issues a model answer should address. Accordingly, high scoring MPTs are more similar
to other high scoring MPTs. As such, examinees should compare their MPT statistics to the statistics of the high scoring MPTs and make the appropriate adjustments. The
first table below illustrates your MPT score and MPT statistics as compared to other NY examinees, namely the First and Second Released Above Average Answers from
NYBOLE (Model1 & Model2), the highest scoring examinee MPT (Best) and an average of all the MPTs sent to me by examinees for this exam, both typed and hand-written
(NYAVG). The next table illustrates your MPT score and MPT statistics as compared to MPTs from other states that release MPT exemplars. Finally, there is a seperate
"StateAvg" column that averages all these released state exemplar MPTs to report the statistics of an average high scoring MPT. These statistics, coupled with the Essay/MPT
Comparison, is probably the most efficient way for an examinee to identify the deficiencies in their own MPT.

On the next page, I conduct an MPT analysis comparison based on adding each examinee’s MPT percentages for the following: (1) MPT File and Library; (2) NYBOLE
Released Answer 1; (3) NYBOLE Released Answer 2 Comparison; (4) the Highest Scoring MPT submitted by examinees; and (5) the MPT Point Sheet. For example, the First
Above Average Answer released by NYBOLE had an Essay To Question Comparison (i.e. File and Library) of 50.8%, an Essay To Answer 2 Comparison (i.e. Second released
NYBOLE above average answer) of 59.1%, an Essay To Best Ans. Comparison (i.e. highest scoring MPT of examinees who sent me their essays) of 66.5%, and an Essay To
Point Sheet Comparison (this MPT grading sheet is released by NCBE) of 57.5%. This answer was estimated to have contributed 46.9 to the examinee's final score, or 7% of a
passing score of 665 (while the MPT is worth 10% of the exam).

The purpose of such analysis comparisons is to examine how well an MPT score corresponds with confirmable external sources such as the above average answers, point
sheet, best examinee answer, and the file and library itself. For example, if an examinee's MPT is highly correlated with these external sources, does the examinee receive a
high grade? Conversely, if an examinee's MPT is not highly correlated with these external sources, does the examinee receive a low grade? If another jurisdiction uses the
same MPT for their exam and releases above average exemplars, I also include these MPTs in the analysis (e.g. Arkansas is AR1, Georgia is GA1-GA3, Indiana is IN1,
Maryland is MD1-MD2, Minnesota is MN1, Ohio is OH1, and Texas is TX1-TX4). I estimate the scores for these MPTs based on the top NY MPT scores and then I adjust
based on the size of the pool of examinees (e.g. the pool of TX MPTs is 27% the size of NY's pool of MPTs while the other states are even smaller - MD 13%, GA 12%; OH
11%; and MN 5% and AR 2%) since the best MPT from a much smaller jurisdiction may earn a lower score than the best MPT from a larger pool such as NY. Examinees who
participate in the Essay/MPT Comparison should review such cases, along with cases where there is low correlation but a high score (for some insight on what to do) or a high
correlation but a low score (for some insight on what not to do). For example, if an exemplar has a low Essay to Point Sheet Comparison, what else did the grader find in that
essay to warrant a high score? In regards to the NY MPTs, since the MPT graders are probably constant with each exam, examinees can use this information to fashion a
response similar to the responses that MPT graders have graded favorably in the past. On the below table, your MPT results are highlighted in yellow.
