This is what the test looks like
Every paper opens in a real exam screen: the three hour timer, the question palette, mark for review, and save and next. With the pass, all 100 questions of every paper run exactly like this.
What 642 finished question papers show
Every figure below is measured on this practice: papers where a candidate answered 90 or more of the 100 questions, scored against the Bar Council's official final answer keys.
Leaving a question blank
Share of papers that cleared the 45% pass mark. AIBE takes nothing off for a wrong answer, so a blank can only score zero and a guess is a one in four.
How long candidates take
The average candidate uses 122 of the 180 minutes, so most finish with time to spare. The 185 papers finished in under an hour cleared 45% only 34% of the time.
Not every question paper is the same
Average score of everyone who finished each paper. The line is the 45% pass mark.
- AIBE XX 2025 Set A 52% 59% cleared 45, 272 finished
- AIBE XVIII 2023 Set A 55% 66% cleared 45, 71 finished

- AIBE XIX 2024 Set A 63% 83% cleared 45, 125 finished
- AIBE XVII 2023 Set C 68% 87% cleared 45, 60 finished
A paper appears here once at least 20 candidates have finished it, so one score cannot swing the average.
