Vincent,

I used Kayton's to prepare for my exam and passed. After the fact, I compared to others (patbar, BARBRI) and have found the materials to be far superior. While Kayton's videos are long and somewhat boring (46 hours of talking heads), they will help you learn the material well. The other major benefit of Kayton's is the computerized question bank. After watching the videos, I made my own outline and then went through all the questions, supplementing the outline along the way. This allowed me to finish each section of the exam (2 sections, 50 questions each) in about an hour and 45 minutes, leaving plenty of time to look up the answers I was not sure of.

Hope this helps.

Matt
