2 FIRST-YEAR GRADES ARE CRUCIAL TO YOUR LEGAL CAREER. 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.

3 WE LL HELP YOU OVERCOME EVERY CHALLENGE FROM DAY ONE. 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?

7 THE BEST PRAISE COMES FROM THOSE WHO VE BEEN THERE. Here are words of testimony offered by previous BARBRI Law Preview graduates about the difference the course made in their law school success. 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.
