BarMax Bar Exam, MBE & MPRE

I’m a foreign trained lawyer from the Dominican Republic with an LLM degree from St. Mary’s School of Law, passed the Texas Bar on my first try thanks in big part to Bar Max. Bar Max gives you the right amount of digestible information to pass the bar. The live sessions and their recordings were crucial in the final 3 weeks of study in helping me remember and organize the countless rules in my head. Thank you Bar Max!

I still use the outlines as a touch point for black letter law or, for example remembering what the defenses to contract formation are vs excuses from performance etc.

This is a good, inexpensive refresher course if you have had the bar exam before and/or already had a bar prep course. I absolutely do not recommend it as a first time taker. Some of these outlines are a mess, the questions are really hit or miss, and the answers and response you get from some of the staff is even worse. Their practice questions aren’t even close in depth to MBE items. Again, it’s not a bad course if you just need to review for a second license etc. But I would not try to lean into this solely out of the gate.

I was upset I did not pass my first time. I decided to go all out and give myself a chance to succeed. I really want this and I still have to write my essays but so far I am enjoying the lectures and multiple choice questions so far! I enjoy studying from my phone and really happy Mehran created an affordable program for people who want to pass. I am looking forward to putting in the work and letting others know about BarMax so we can help others who need a voice. For me, I truly do want to change the world for the better. This has been years in the making but I am not giving up! I am writing this at 1:11 am to the sound of neighbors that I don’t want to be living around. I swear that failure is not an option for February 2024! I’m going to do my MBEs nonstop right now and essays during the day nonstop. I AM A LAWYER NOW!!!!!

Just bought the Bar Review Course to do the New York Bar Exam in July 2024. The Course is structured to ensure that you’re successful. You are guaranteed to get out the program what you put in. All you require is discipline and stamina.

The misrepresentation that you have access to this app for life has been shown to be a lie from my experience. Testmax used frivolous reasons such as usage from different ip addresses falsely to prevent my use of the app. Caveat Emptor. This is likely to end in court.

By the time you realized you paid $900 for outlines, they laugh at you and tell you it’s too late. Avoid this company.

I am learning A LOT FROM BARMAX!!! So much Stuff to KNOW!!!! Thanks, BARMAX!!!

Improvements needed to make it better: (1) When you listen to a lecture and stop before it ends, the lecture doesn’t pick up where you had left off. It opens up at the beginning of the lecture. Quite inefficient and you lose a lot of time that way. The lectures are helpful background; (2) The only speed for lectures are 1x and 2x. 2x is generally not usable since they talk way too fast and sounds like a foreign language. Be good to have 1.5x as well; (3) For some of the lectures it doesn’t cover the outline. The outline seems to have been more frequently updated than the lectures. Lectures are very helpful since they add background. Disappointed that they don’t update the lectures. Pretty pricey course to have these deficiencies.

Providing great insight and practice.
