Reviews for BARBRI Bar Exam Prep
BARBRI was an essential part of my success on those exam days. From day one, BARBRI was a great primer to subjects I’d forgotten. The progress tracking tools kept me engaged throughout the study process. I was blown away by the MBE Review lectures; those professors knew exactly what to expect on the bar. I definitely put in the work, but the course was worth every penny!
…BARBRI is doing something right. It’s more than just, ‘Oh, it’s the popular thing to do.’ People are taking this course because BARBRI is successful. BARBRI will always be successful
BARBRI kept me on track in terms of knowing how much I should be doing and at what point during my studies. It was also helpful to have it track my progress, show me my progress versus others, and give me a way to keep track of what I had done and what I had left to do. Follow the study plan, and you’ll not only pass but feel prepared on the day of the exam because you know you did everything you could and more than most other people!”

BARBRI instructional videos were engaging and highlighted the subjects that appeared on the bar in an informative yet interesting manner. The review videos were particularly helpful for classes that I did not take in law school that still appeared on the bar. BARBRI essay feedback provided me with valuable essay writing experience that gave me the skills I needed. BARBRI’s review course came with thousands of helpful MBE multiple-choice review problems. Each problem contained a detailed answer and analysis. A heart-felt and sincere thank you to BARBRI for allowing me to fulfill my dream of passing the bar exam!
