I passed! I solely used Barbri to prepare for the July 2023 bar exam. The best feature is the planner. I am not good at planning a study schedule, but Barbri prepared a daily schedule of lectures and routine practices. I loved the lecturers and the constant MBE drilling, as well as the solid essay model answers. If you just stick to Barbri’s daily schedule, you’ll pass.

I think it was the best decision I made… I think it was the best decision I made with regard to SQE. It helped me to use my time wisely and get plenty of practice. The individual schedule of lessons they provide is essential when one is working and studing. It is great one can see own progress and plan the time. I passed from the first attempt. Very grateful to the team. (The section on the solicitors accounts requires improvement, not very clear. I had to use some additional materials to get better understanding).

Disappointing Experience While I appreciate that the laws change, the books should be updated more regularly. I started the course Aug 2023, while my book was published in 2022 (No month published). There were 11 pages of supplementary notes with 25 days of updates and more than 50 amendments across different subjects. I am aware of at least one law change (9 months ago) that is not present in the supplementary information. While tests were helpful, some of the questions and answers were incorrect due to the above information. Questions and answers need to be updated in real-time. Response time to questions was good. The system did not always work. Sometimes, being locked out of course entirely and constant errors in loading tests. Lectures were sometimes very difficult to hear; the volume was too low. I will be looking elsewhere for SQE2 which is disappointing as BARBRI is supposed to be a 'Global leader in legal education'.

Thank you Barbri! I’ve studied a 40-week course for SQE1 with Barbri. I passed both parts of the exam on the first attempt and I’m extremely grateful to Barbri. I really appreciated the personal study plan, unlimited access to great personal tutors, opportunities to ask questions and paper copies of the book. I will surely continue my education with them. Thank you, I’m forever grateful!

My experience with BARBRI's SQE1… My experience with BARBRI's SQE1 coaching exceeded all my expectations. The spaced learning MCQs, mixed practice questions and the topic-wise lectures make the course really accessible and easy to follow. The best thing about the whole experience was the Personal Study Plan (PSP) which broke down the tasks for me to do each day and each week. This helped push me to constantly achieve my goals week by week, which helped keep anxiety at bay. The PSP made sure that I had learnt everything and completed all my mocks right in time for my exams! I am pleased to report that I passed in the first quintile at my first attempt- so the course really works. Would 10/10 recommend BARBRI to anyone doing their SQE1.
