2013 Barbri v. 2016 Barbri. Can I use old materials? How much has changed?

Post by arc1138 » Fri Mar 18, 2016 11:32 am

I have 2013 and 14 Barbri materials, can anyone who knows tell me whether the lectures/ materials have changed and are better or not?

Am I okay using this material?

The MBE materials won't include CivPro. It'll still be in the lecture topics, but there won't be any practice multiple choice.

I used 2011 Barbri books to study for 2016 Feb bar and while taking the test I didn't feel like there was anything on the test that wasn't covered in my 2011barbri books. That I being said, I may not be the best person to comment on this because I failed by 14 points. Did horribly on the MBE and did OK on the the essays, which is contrary to what I thought I would do.


@Brokenmouse(Or Anyone...)

Could you give me an example of some the changes in Con Law or the FRCP that you noted between 2013 and 2016? Not trying to argue or disagree with you , just curious on what has changed.
