The material is well written and doesn't contain unnecessary content, the office hours are extremely helpful as well as the practice essay grading by the tutors! BarMax helped me pass the California July 2021 exam. Thank you.

I just want to say Whitney is the best tutor this program has to offer. She takes her time with you and she is so positive. I am grateful she was my tutor this summer before the July UBE. I am pleased to say because of her techniques I passed the bar! One and done! Thank you Whitney! - Nickeysha

LSATMax's private tutors (as well as…
LSATMax's private tutors (as well as its online prep program) are fantastic. With their help I was able to improve from an initial 154 to a 164 on October's test. I'm currently averaging in the high 160s-low 170s on practice tests as I continue studying for the November exam. I primarily worked with Abigail George, a great person and inspiring teacher. I had a blast analyzing games with her, and learned key insights during each of our sessions. For maximum improvement on the LSAT, I highly recommend scheduling some appointments to meet up with Abigail for online tutoring.

Bar Max was a good fit for me
Bar Max was a good fit for me. I am a foreign-trained lawyer and was not overwhelmed with Bar Max's layout. The lectures, flashcards and practice questions paired with Whitney - an EXCELLENT tutor, helped me pass the exam.
Highly recommended!
Thank you Bar Max!

BarMax was a good fit for me.
BarMax was a good fit for me. Their outlines are not overwhelming--focuses on the important rules. Reading the past essay and MPT questions was a big help in my bar exam review. They now have Office Hours Session videos, which are very helpful. Some of these videos will give you tips on how to answer MPT and Essay questions.

Using BarMax
Using BarMax, I scored a 304 on the NY Bar Exam (UBE). This score is roughly in the 90th percentile, and well above the pass rate for all UBE jurisdictions. I thought the outlines were really efficient and easy to use. They did not include tons of superfluous information. All of my friends used competitors, and it sounded like they were studying 10-12 hours a day for 9 weeks. My days were much more reasonable, and I did well. I also found a few of the BarMax video tutorials very helpful. It was also much less expensive than many other services.
Two small points of feedback. 1) A few of the outlines for MEE-only subjects could have been edited down a lot. 2) BarMax should take more steps to familiarize test-takers with the basic structure of the test and introduce them to prep strategies with respect to MBE vs. MEE.

Excellent course material, practice and real practical information. The podcast and study calendar helped me design a schedule to get the best out of the resources available to a 1st gen, Blessings

I PASSED THE NEW YORK BAR EXAM!!
I PASSED THE NEW YORK BAR EXAM THE FIRST TIME AS A FOREIGN LAW STUDENT!! I am from England, and I have an LLM degree from a North Carolina law school. While I was there I heard a lot about various providers (a lot of advertising from Barbri and Kaplan). I decided to postpone taking the bar exam for a few years due to other commitments, and when I finally decided I was ready to take it, I did not know which provider to go for. I found out that a girl from my UK University had passed the California bar exam and so I asked her which provider she studied with. She told me BarMax! I had never heard of them before, but she had nothing but good things to say! I decided to look into them and realised they were the perfect course for me! Not only were they one of the cheapest providers for foreign students, but unlike the other providers, their materials are accessible forever (this actually worked out in my favour when COVID-19 broke out and the bar exam had to limit their pool of eligible applicants, meaning I had to wait another year to sit the exam than I had originally planned)! BarMax's materials were extremely comprenhensive. From taking a 2-3 year gap between law school and the bar, I had forgotten a lot of things, and from being foreigner a lot of the subjects were subjects I had never taken a class in, in neither the US or the UK (etc secured transactions), but Barmax explained things in a very simple way and made it easy to understand! When I did have questions, I always used the chat feature and would get very clear responses! The tutors really do care about our success and want to help us as much as they can! I also found the access to past questions extremely useful (I'd recommend using these as much as possible), along with the essay/MPT feedback (although I didn't submit as many practice questions as I probably should have!!)! Furthermore, the study calendar which I used closer to the exam really helped keep me on track! I fully recommend BarMax to anyone thinking about taking the bar exam!!
