They are basically the same thing, either will do. But Barbri has way more model answers. They give you about 60-100 model essay answers that I suspect barbri administrators did themselves. Then they have another section of their essay book with 2 released answers from takers for each essay. So 2 released answers for each of about 100 more essay (added to the 60-100 model answers), that makes about 200 released essay answers, and 60-100 model essay answers...
The essays go about 10-12 years back, probably more I forgot. The book is about 3-4 inches thick
