So far it seems almost identical to on campus (based on what I've been told by people who go on campus to just watch the same video)
Is there ANY perk to paying the extra few hundred bucks that I am missing out on?

I have only heard that it doesn't matter what you take as long as you put the time in.
I don't think you are in any worse shape than anyone just going off which prep course / material you are going off.

wut?
Probably half my class, including me and both my roommates did the online only courses. We all passed (easily, judging from my MBE score). Some people did it from working vacations overseas. Sure, you still have to put the time in, but I ended up falling fairly far behind the online course, and it didn't matter because the bar is easy. I think people who fail the bar are either sadly incompetent (really, it makes me sad that they came all this way to fail) or some sort of depressed and don't study because they don't care or really don't want to be lawyers.
Add: I suppose I need to give some respect to foreigners taking the bar because it may be hard without 3 years of prep and harder still if English is not your native language.
