The Michigan Board of Law Examiners administers the Michigan bar examination under its Uniform Bar Examination rules.

Michigan laptop materials state that the Board contracts with ExamSoft to provide technology for administering the essay portion of the bar examination. Examplify is described as secure testing software that lets applicants use their own laptops while blocking access to files, programs, and the Internet during the exam; applicants download exam files before exam day and upload answers afterward with Internet access. NCBE's current NextGen jurisdiction table lists Michigan's first NextGen UBE administration as July 2028, with passing score and transfer details still to be announced.
