Classroom Programme (NY Bar)


The classroom programme takes place on Friday evenings (6pm - 10pm) and Saturday daytime (9.30am - 6pm). Occasionally Sundays are timetabled for simulated exams and catch up sessions. Breaks are built into the programme. By choosing this mode of delivery you will benefit from face-to-face interaction with your tutor and colleagues.


Tuition classes are mainly delivered by DVD on state of the art equipment and supported by the Course Director who facilitates question and answer sessions. This is the standard US delivery format - one live lecture is recorded and shown in over fifty locations nationwide. The DVD lectures focus on substantive legal knowledge required to pass the New York State Bar Examination. Lectures are exam driven - carefully crafted to convey what you need to know in each multistate and state subject.


Benefit from the BarBri Paced Programme - a weekly study schedule provided to assist you with your preparation for the exam.
