If you are successful on the examination, you will be notified of your MBE score only. If you are not successful on the examination, you will be notified of your performance on MBE and essay sections of the examination. You will be given a grading sheet which reflects: your MBE scaled score; the maximum raw point value and the raw score you achieved on each essay question; your total raw essay score; your scaled essay score; and your combined scaled score (MBE scaled score + essay scaled score) on the examination. (NOTE: If you transferred your essay score or MBE score from a previous examination, you will be notified only that you passed that section of the examination, and your score will be reported to you as a scaled score of 133.)
