THANK YOU BARBRI! With the 40-week prep course, I was able to pass the exam on my first attempt. Coming from a non-legal background, SQE is my first legal exam. All the knowledge required was new to me. I like BARBRI's approach to answering the question and the learning materials. I submitted many substantive questions and I appreciate BARBRI answering all of them in detail. AGAIN, THANK YOU!

SQE prep Barbri provide short but engaging lectures on the materials covered in SQE 1. My learning coach was so helpful and I could book an appointment with her at any time she was available however many times you need. You get physical as well as online books which is great and you can search and highlight in the online books. They have lots of multiple choice questions and a few mocks that you can practice before the exams. The PSP guided you with how much time you need to study each week to stay on top and the progress reports tell you which subjects you need to work on. I did feel after sitting the exams the questions were a little easier than the actual exams and I think the fact patterns in Barbris sample questions could be more detailed and longer. The updates document was helpful but I did feel like updates came a little late and the document was unorganised. I would recommend students to study with Barbri based on my experience.

Super disappointed Super disappointed. I work full time and wanted to start early so I prepaid for the entire course and only then did they tell me they would not mail the materials for almost two months. When i did receive the materials they are so riddled with errors, five sections have digital notes because the printed versions were not updated prior to printing. There are even typos in the chapter headings. The printing quality sucks you can hardly read the graphs and charts. And the answers for the essays that you use for self grading actually misquote the facts from the fact pattern. The time log is constantly inaccurate, requiring me to go back and once again mark as complete assignments I have already completed. I am unbelievably frustrated. I am so sorry I went with Barbri. It is way too expensive to have all of these errors and distractions.

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'.

Got me across the finish line Got me across the finish line. Got me prepared with the lectures I needed and pretty good practice questions. Essays for Virginia were good, and appreciated the use of old essays, although I still used a supplemental course specific for Va essays. Mbe questions were good although they were different than the ones I got on test day (not sure why this was). Overall a good experience.
