As legal licensure evolves, BARBRI Bar Review leads with a comprehensive course designed specifically for the NextGen Bar Exam—open and available now.
BARBRI—the trusted leader in legal education—has launched its NextGen Bar Review course, the first fully-built bar prep program designed specifically for the NextGen Uniform Bar Exam. Created to meet a defining moment in legal licensure, the course delivers a complete, exam‑aligned experience that allows students to prepare with confidence for the new exam.
The NextGen UBE marks a fundamental shift in how future lawyers are evaluated and represents one of the most significant changes to legal licensing in decades. Rather than testing legal knowledge in isolation, the NextGen UBE redefines readiness for legal practice by integrating doctrine with applied lawyering skills, professional competencies, and real-world decision-making. The exam evaluates how candidates reason through realistic, practice-based scenarios, requiring them not only to know the law, but also to think and perform like a lawyer.
Innovating Today to Help Tomorrow’s Lawyers Succeed
BARBRI recognized early that this shift could not be addressed through incremental updates to a legacy course. Preparing students for the NextGen UBE required rethinking not just content, but also course design, instructional strategy, and how learning is reinforced.
In 2023, BARBRI’s legal and instructional design experts started preparing for this transition, redesigning core elements of its bar prep experience to align with the NextGen UBE’s direction. Those early decisions laid the foundation for a purpose‑built course designed around how the exam assesses readiness, not how prior exams operated.
A New Exam Required a New Course
There is a clear point of view behind BARBRI’s NextGen Bar Review course: the NextGen UBE required a completely new approach, not a modified version of the past.
Rather than adapting legacy materials or re-branding an existing course, BARBRI rebuilt its NextGen offering from the ground up. Every element of the course is intentionally designed to align with the competencies, skills, and applied analysis the new exam demands, reflecting the integrated nature of NextGen itself.
“The launch of the NextGen Bar Exam gave us the opportunity to rethink bar preparation from the examinee’s perspective,” said Pamela Siege Chandler, Chief Content & Learning Officer. “Our new course was completely redesigned to align with the structure and demands of the NextGen exam, with new features and learning experiences that make preparation not only more effective, but more engaging and immersive than ever before.”
