[blindlaw] Bar Review Materials

[john]

Rod,
I took both at home and it was definitely better than the video review
BAR/BRI gave us in the 3L year.
Take care,
John

John, did you take the courses in the classroom?
I am debating which is better.
If they will give me the same thing on Cd, then there won't be the need to 
go and sit in a room to watch a video and take notes -- I can do that in my 
own quiet time, at my chosen location.
Have anyone taken those review classes privately before?
I will be making a choice soon!
