Why Didn't I Think of That?

I'd like to meet the people who invented BarBri for several reasons.

First, they've got some explaining to do regarding the shortage of workbooks at the MPRE review course last weekend.

Second, they're geniuses. Never has an organization managed to extract thousands of dollars from most of the law students in the country, control their entire summer schedules, and leave them in the dark as to the class schedule indefinitely quite like BarBri. Obviously, this power comes from the fact they have virtually no competition (MicroMash hasn't even approached the popularity that BarBri enjoys, and it's too new for many people to entrust their bar exam to it.)

But it gets better. As far as I have heard, these BarBri review courses are TAPED! That's right. We're all paying $2000 to watch tapes all summer! You do the math, but I'd imagine the cost of having ONE person do several lectures and then taping and disseminating those lectures doesn't cost them $2000 per "student." They've got to just be swimming in money.
