Barbri materials

  • Barbri is a well-regarded bar exam preparation course, so please hold off on the purchase of other commercial outlines until you have a chance to assess the benefit of using the Barbri materials. And consider that the Barbri materials are meant as “review” materials. This means that they are most helpful after some basic doctrine has been absorbed.
