GBI trusted BARBRI because attorney who I… I trusted BARBRI because attorneys who I really respected had taken BARBRI and passed. Their predictions were very accurate. BARBRI predicted I’d pass the first time and I did. My passing score was 1% above what they predicted. Their reliable teaching methods and encouragement made me confident I'd pass.

DEA huge thank you to Barbri A huge thank you to Barbri for providing me with all of the knowledge and support I needed to pass the SQE1, and a shout out to my learning coach Joanne White who was always there to help me when I needed it! I am so grateful for our regular catch ups through what can be a very daunting process.

GBDisappointing 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'.

GBSQE 1 and 2 - well organised and professional Studied both SQE1 and 2. Well organised and professional tutors. The best learning method - time spaced repetition. The highest pass rates....... However I would not study with Barbri if you have not studies law before as it simply does not go into enough depth. I would encourage any non law graduates to do a GDL first unless you have been a paralegal with lots of experience in many areas. For many reputable law firms the GCDL is a pre-requisite for NQs .

GBI 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.
