Each BARBRI review course includes all you need to succeed on the bar exam. The BARBRI course in preparation for the Delaware bar exam is operated by Widener Delaware Bar Review, an affiliate of BARBRI run by the Bar Programs office of Widener University School of Law, the only law school located in the State of Delaware. The course is comprised of substantive law lectures covering all the tested subject areas, as well as workshops devoted to the Essay, Performance Test and MBE portions of the exam. Simulated exams are used to improve your skills in these areas. Our method includes listening, reading and application. This allows you to go beyond mere memorization and develops the requisite command of substantive law. With outlines, lectures, workshops and practice questions, students receive everything necessary to pass the Delaware bar exam the first time.
