Re: BarBri or MicroMash Bar Review
Posted by Kim on 3/27/07

    I am trying to figure this out too. I already know I do not learn from
    lectures - I learn from sitting with the materials. I am in the top of my law
    school class and theonly one I know of who will not be taking the standard
    BarBri - but this is partially because I have to move halfway thorugh the
    summer. So - any further comments anyone has on home study review - please post
    it. I have looked at Celebration, The Stdy Group, Micromash, Pieper and Bar
    Bri. Not sure what to do yet.
