Since I’ve decided not to take Barbri, I’ve been looking into other bar review courses. It is so hard to judge them based on their websites, where they all sound wonderfully the same… and since Barbri has monopolized the market so much, it’s very difficult to find people with fairly normal situations (compared to someone who, say, is taking the bar for a 5th time and trying to study in Antarctica) who have taken a course other than Barbri. BUT - So far, I think MicroMash sounds ok. Some of their reps came to school today to give an informational pep talk about their product. A few tidbits I picked up about their online software and overall bar review method:
- There are approximately 2400 MBE questions offered; to go through all of them at least once takes an estimated 150hrs (read - 3.5hrs/day for 40days. Yes, this is going to be my life in two months.)
- MM provides a full-week study guide that starts on June 1
- You can download a free 50-question demo off their website
- If you complete a set of requirements, they will guarantee you a passing score OR you get all your $$ back or they keep upgrading your software/materials until you pass (but.. how difficult are the reqs??)
- Their software keeps track of the subjects you’re the weakest/strongest in and presents you with more/less questions in those areas
- The software has a timer that monitors how long it takes you to do each question, and how long it takes you to do a certain set of questions overall
- Answers/Explanations in the software are keyed to page#’s in the written materials for easy reference
BUT - the #1 Reason why I’m excited about MicroMash…………
I WON A FREE MBE REVIEW COURSE WORTH $895!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
