[blindLaw] The perennial bar prep question.

[Julie McGinnity]

Thanks for sending this. I am also beginning to research bar prep
options. OMG they are expensive! So I want to get something that's
worth the price. I think one of them offers a free course for prepping
for the MPRE. I'm going to test that out first.

I'm truly blown away at how expensive it is to study for and take the
Bar. I hope there's at least one option that's worth it from an
accessibility standpoint and provides lots of practice questions.
