Re: BarBri or MicroMash Bar Review
Posted by Leslie Garcia on 4/03/08

    Please let me know how you felt about the microMash prep. I also live too many
    miles away from a locale that offers Barbri. I am also not sure which plan I should
    really be considering. Did you choose the Excel? If so did you find the mentor
    program to be very useful and did you use the mentor enough to justify paying for
    the excel v. the plus. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I am sitting for
    the Texas Bar in July 08. Thanks 8-)
