Colorado Supreme Court Amends Bar Exam Passing Score
This past week the Colorado Supreme Court adopted a new Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) score that is more in line with the majority of jurisdictions. The previous minimum passing score was 276. The new cut score will be 270 starting with the February 2023 UBE. The decision is not retroactive, either for new Colorado UBE takers or for transfers into Colorado. Here's the link for the details along with a report from the State of Oregon about cut score calculus:

Note: The map below still shows CO as 276 rather than 270 but the table is correct. https://www.ncbex.org/exams/ube/score-portability/minimum-scores/
