ITThorough and focused. Thorough and focused. Coverage and emphasis of the right areas of study for the Bar. Preferred this over broad dumping of info. Not a fan of the format of some of the written materials, but still good - better digital form would have helped a lot, and maybe a cross-reference structure between overlapping ideas

GBI did the 20 week course with BARBRI I did the 20 week course with BARBRI for SQE1 and passed on my first attempt. Would highly recommend the course for anyone! It is online so is also very suitable for anyone working or anyone who wants to study for the SQE but needs to be flexible with their time and study at their own pace. It is a combination of online lectures, readings, many many practice tests, mocks and tutor support (there are lots of resources to use). All of this is available on their personalised platform and you can schedule your study time around your timetable. The tutors are very friendly, engaging, responsive and offer really excellent support ahead of a very difficult exam :)

GBGood Enough (Passed) But Could Improve There are only so many ways to present the material. Some people prefer flow charts, mnemonics, whatever. My principal complaint concerns the lecturers. Some of them have no business being part of a program I paid almost 3K. The good: civ pro, contracts, torts, community property, OK: corps, agency/partnership The awful: Con law, crim law/crim pro, wills, trusts, evidence. I did like the "micro" essays embedded in some of the lectures. You should expand on those. The MBE materials were fine. Everybody complained about the Feb. administration; it didn't matter if they used Adaptibar, Uworld, or other.

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 .

GBLaw made easy! I did the SQE1 prep course with Barbri, and I passed on my first sitting! I had not studied law before and I do not work in a firm. Barbri offers so much support, and the teaching style helped me overcome my fears. The language is very accessible. This is the "law for dummies" reassurance I was looking for!
