I took PR 1st semester of 2L year. Did fair in the class but not great. I took the MPRE 1st semester of 3L year, buckled down and studied my booty off and easily passed for every jurisdiction in the US. You should be fine by the time you have to sit for the MPRE provided you study at least a little bit. Every person I know who didn't pass for the jurisdiction they needed to thought to themselves "It's just ethics; it's easy." Yeah, the MPRE is easy--when you've actually studied for it!

I agree with GeekyPenguin though; check the jurisdiction you're planning to be in quite carefully. And remember that the MPRE is offered in August, November, and March--so technically the August exam would be AFTER your 2L year is done if you're on semesters.
