Bar Exam Drills Podcast - Ep 032 - February 2026 MEE UBE Bar Exam WildCard Essay Predictions

Get ready to strategically prepare for the February 2026 Uniform Bar Exam with Episode 032 of the Bar Exam Drills Podcast. This detailed wild card predictions video breaks down the four MEE subjects most likely to surprise you on exam day: Criminal Procedure, Torts, Partnerships, and Criminal Law. I analyze historical testing patterns going back years to identify exactly which essays you should prioritize studying. In this episode, I walk through Criminal Procedure patterns from July 2025's school search question back to 2019, highlighting specific topics like Terry frisks, Miranda invocation, vehicle stops, and plainview doctrine that are ripe for testing. For Torts, we examine the shift from recent negligence questions to potential child tortfeasor scenarios and abnormally dangerous activities that haven't appeared in nearly a decade. The Partnerships analysis reveals withdrawal issues, winding down procedures, and partnership agreements as critical topics based on testing gaps since 2018. Criminal Law gets special attention as our final wild card subject, where I predict crimes against persons over property crimes, with insanity defenses like the McNaughton test standing out as high-probability topics given their historical frequency. I reference specific past exam administrations you should study including July 2021, February 2023, July 2019, and others with detailed breakdowns of what made those essays important. This isn't surface-level guessing—this is pattern recognition from someone who has been grading these essays for students and knows exactly how the NCBE cycles through subjects and sub-topics. Download the Bar Exam Drills iOS app to access all the historical essays I reference in this video, organized by jurisdiction and testing date so you can practice the exact topics most likely to appear. Whether you're a first-time taker or repeating the bar exam, these wild card predictions help you avoid wasting precious study time on low-probability subjects and instead focus your energy where it counts. I hope this is your last exam. Leave a comment if you want to discuss any of these predictions further, and I'll be sure to reply.
