Special Features
BARBRI AMP
BARBRI AMP is an interactive legal learning application that helps you learn faster and retain content longer. BARBRI AMP quickly distinguishes the MBE concepts you know, from those you don’t, allowing them to make the most out of your study time. Because most students avoid reviewing material they have already mastered, BARBRI AMP helps focus learning, improve retention and build MBE subject mastery, effectively reducing study time. An additional, unique aspect of BARBRI AMP is that it also tests a student’s confidence in their responses, ensuring that they have mastered the content vs. guessing their way to a right answer. To learn more about BARBRI AMP, watch our YouTube demonstration.
