Multistate Bar Examination Practice Question

During a personal injury trial, the plaintiff testifies that she told her doctor, 'My back has been hurting since the car accident.' The defense objects, arguing the statement is inadmissible hearsay. The plaintiff’s attorney argues that the statement is admissible under a recognized exception to the hearsay rule. Should the court admit the statement as evidence?

  • Yes, the statement is admissible because it was made to assist the doctor in diagnosing and treating the plaintiff's condition.

  • No, the statement is inadmissible because it is self-serving and offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted.

  • No, the statement is inadmissible because it references the car accident, which is an external event rather than a medical condition.

  • Yes, the statement is admissible because it describes symptoms that could impact the doctor’s understanding of the injury.
