One of the reader's of this blog asked "How do I know what a passing score is?" as it related to the California bar exam essays and PT's.
Not having passed the California bar exam nor having the experience of regularly convening with a bar grader, I would be hard-pressed to answer this question. However, I do know that there is a service that provides actual California bar exam answers with different scores ranging from low (40 to 50) to high (70 to 80).
By subscribing to this service (see link below), one can determine what is a failing and a passing essay score from actual graded exams.

According to the founder/operator of BarEssays, "the website is now regularly used and recommended by former bar graders-turned tutors and several law schools in preparing their students for the Cal Bar Exam."

Comments from AdaptiBar (This is not an endorsement)
I heard from an Adaptibar representative this morning who reviewed this blog and who advised the following:
AdaptiBar MBE Simulator & Prep Program
AdaptiBar is an entirely online MBE prep program that consists of only 100% licensed questions from the NCBE. The database has just about 1,450 authentic MBE questions in total. AdaptiBar also has adaptive technology that assesses your performance and adjusts the presentation of questions based on your strengths and weaknesses. Other features include detailed subject performance and timing analysis, over 850 online MBE flashcards, and a free mobile app. Two program sessions are offered per year, February and July. One session is priced at $495, less any applicable discounts. Additional information can be found at www.AdaptiBar.com.
The free trial version allows students to view a sample of the MBE program. It consists of mock MBE questions, but is still a great way to see firsthand AdaptiBar’s features and setting options. The version starts you off as if you had previously answered 150 questions so the charts and graphs are not skewed. Registering for the trial version automatically gets you a $50 discount on your enrollment.
