Do I need to sign up for Pmbr if I have already signed up for BarBri?

From my Online Friends:

As for the Pmbr class, I cannot say with certainty that it is worth it.

Many of my friends took it (some who passed and some who didn't) and most of them did not think it is worth it. Basically you spend the first day taking a 200 question test and the next two going over the answers (which something they did at the end of Bar/Bri anyway, and sounds like their selling separately now). All of the questions and the answers (plus 1000 more) are in the Pmbr Red book. For me (on both attempts) it did not seem worth it to spend $400 or more for something I could do on my own for $50-$100 (the cost of the Red and Blue Pmbr books on Ebay).
I think doing BarBri questions is good enough
Like I posted in one of my first posts, DO NOT sign up for Pmbr if you haven't done so already. It is a waste of time.

For me, I chose to do Pmbr questions because I was doing mostly BarBri questions for the first month and a half. I noticed that the Pmbr questions are significantly differently worded than BarBri questions. I just didn't want to get too comfortable doing one type of questions (BarBri). Plus, I was not putting my Pmbr books to use.

Below is from CA Bar Exam Advice 2007:

To answer your question, I think doing BarBri questions is good enough, but remember to keep practicing and doing MBE questions into your last few weeks. I'm not sure if you will run out of BarBri questions or not. But, if you can buy Pmbr questions or other MBE question books for cheap, you might consider it. It's not necessary, especially if you are doing well on the BarBri ones, but it will help for you to look at different types of questions.
