Personalized, Flexible, Unparalleled Bar Prep

You need a bar prep experience that works with your life. That’s where ISAAC comes in. ISAAC is the engine that creates your BARBRI Personal Study Plan (PSP). It’s the difference between a "one size fits all” course and a "personalized specifically for you" experience. Everything ISAAC assigns is statistically correlated to passing your bar exam. And it automatically recalibrates as it learns from you.

More people have passed a U.S. bar exam with BARBRI than with all other courses. Combined. See why.
