Any attorney will tell you that the grades you earn during your

first year of law school will directly affect your future career

opportunities. That’s because the most selective legal employers

start recruiting in the fall of your second year; so early that 1L

grades are all they see.

First-year grades also typically determine eligibility for law

review and other prestigious scholastic activities, and many top

employers refuse to interview candidates without these honors.

Therefore, your 1L performance dramatically impacts what

opportunities you will be considered for after graduation.

It takes more than desire and will. It takes proper preparation for

the challenges you will face. BARBRI Law Preview is your best

chance to ensure your place at the top of your class by teaching

you how to develop and execute a winning strategy for

academic success.

Since 1998, we’ve taught more than 14,000 entering law school

students how to excel — with amazing, well-documented

results. Discover all the advantages that only BARBRI Law Preview

can provide.

FIRST-YEAR GRADES ARE CRUCIAL TO YOURLEGAL CAREER.

Nothing can prepare you for the challenges and expectations of law school

like BARBRI Law Preview. Why is a strong start so important? Pay attention to

what the experts have to say.

“A student’s grades during the first year of law school are extremely important.

Top law firms recruit for their Summer Associate programs during the fall semester of

the 2L year and often only consider a student’s 1L performance when deciding whom

to interview. We have been a proud sponsor of the Law Preview program since 2009

because we know that proper preparation can make a real difference in the lives of

students about to enter law school.”

MIKE TELLE, ESQ., HIRING PARTNER, BRACEWELL & GIULIANI LLP

“The legal market has always been obsessed with academic credentials and, today,

few students except those with strong grade-point averages at top national and

regional schools can expect a come-hither from a deep-pocketed firm. Nearly everyone

else is in for a struggle.”

THE NEW YORK TIMES, “IS LAW SCHOOL A LOSING GAME?”

WE’LL HELP YOU OVERCOME EVERY CHALLENGE FROM DAY ONE.

RECEIVE EXPERT INSTRUCTION Some of the nation’s top law professors — recognized experts in their fields who

teach at some of the best law schools in the country — provide an overview of each

core 1L class. Mapping the “big picture” in each of your courses before you begin

ensures that you will not be forced to read cases in a vacuum like many of your

unprepared classmates.

GET AHEAD WITH PROVEN ACADEMIC STRATEGIESYou’ll learn how to properly brief cases, create useful outlines and develop skills for

studying more effectively while better managing your time. You’ll also attend

lectures on all first-year classes, so you’ll be comfortable with the material well before

classes begin.

MASTER UNIQUE TEST-TAKING METHODSIn law school, your final exams will likely determine your entire grade. With so

much emphasis placed on these tests, you need to be prepared. Our faculty of

law school professors will teach you our unique method for conquering law

school exams — one that goes beyond the typical “IRAC” method many students

employ to their detriment. You’ll learn how to deconstruct hypothetical fact patterns

and draft A+ answers.

GIVE YOURSELF EVERY ADVANTAGE WITH OUR PROVEN PROGRAM.

It’s a fact. BARBRI Law Preview students perform better than their fellow law school

peers. How do we know? We’ve heard it from former students, themselves.

We retained an independent third party to survey BARBRI Law Preview alums

and get feedback on how well our insights and curriculum paid off for them.

We were surprised to receive such a large percentage of completed surveys,

but we weren’t surprised by what they said.

Among the thousands who were surveyed, 99% said the course met or

exceeded their expectations…and there’s more.

“Law Preview provided me with an outstanding

overview of my 1L curriculum and allowed me to

grasp the big picture of each course far earlier than

I would have otherwise. Thanks to Law Preview’s

overview, from the moment that classes started I

knew how to manage my time, which proved

invaluable when reading period began and I was

ready to invoke Law Preview’s exam preparation

strategies right on schedule. I would definitely

recommend this class to any incoming law student!”

COREY B. HARVARD LAW SCHOOL, CLASS OF 2013

“I participated in [BARBRI] Law Preview this

past summer in Los Angeles, and the course was

very influential in my first semester success

because it taught me how to approach the

material, remain organized and stay one step

ahead... I strongly believe it is due to the

training, materials and resources provided by

Law Preview that I finished my first semester in

law school with a 4.0 GPA.”

STEPHANIE R. LOYOLA LAW SCHOOL, CLASS OF 2014
