So, I decided to check out the early start in Barbri today and after using it for about 45 minutes the site when down. I called tech support and they confirmed that Barbri completely down now and no one can log in. I tried to ask the representative how often this occurs and how long the outages last and she mentioned that outages can be from a few minutes up to a full day. She also said that it's been a while since Barbri outages like this have occurred. I hope this is not a regular occurrence with the session for the July 2019 bar exam.

Wow, that is concerning. I will also be using Barbri to study for the July bar. I guess this means that we should all have a plan for how to have a productive day when the site is done, meaning plan to do practice tests, or use another aid like adaptibar.

Everyone I have spoke to recommends supplementing with Adaptibar.

You should have hard copy materials from Barbri and you should be able to work from those if the system is down. You can do multiple choice questions, write essays, outline essays, etc. without having to use the Barbri site, right?
