I used PMBR and Pieper Bar Review. I'm a New York/New Jersey freak so I took both at the same time to spice up my summer of hell. The PMBR course has 2 programs, a 6-Day review and a 3-Day one. The 6 Day is worthless in my opinion if you are taking another bar course like Bar/Bri or whatever. The 3-Day however was worth the money to me. You take the hardest MBE practice exam and go over the questions. Good review and chances are that maybe some (very very few of course) will be seen on the actual exam.

As for my super prep course, Pieper was amazing. Some of my friends studied with Bar/Bri New York and said the video lectures sucked and was difficult to follow in the notes. This was just their opinion, so don't get scared, I hear Bar/Bri is still a great choice. I went with Pieper because of the reputation and uniformity of the DVD lectures. Same guy, same notetaking routine, it was easy to follow and understand the whole way through. Without sounding like a promoter for my course (and since you're probably not a New York taker), I'd leave you with my positive approvals of the review.

I hear some people go for MicroMash or PLI or something else that are home-study reviews. Personally I needed an in-class lecture to go to for me to stay on track all summer. Whatever you choose, make sure you follow the recommended study schedule; you've spent so much on applying to take it so don't let it go to waste. Good luck!
