Hi, I'm unfortunately unable to help you with your posted question. . .I'm hoping you can help me. I am about to embark on taking my theory course for the ATPL (distance learning), can you recommend BGS in terms of quality of course notes, help etc or are there other orgs I should be looking at?. .Thanks for any help at all

If you were to do a search for comments on BGS you would find that they enjoy the highest possible reputation. I started studying with PPSC and then transferred to BGS when PPSC went under. The difference was like day and night. Their notes, questions and CD-ROM are all excellent. Furthermore, their turn-round time on marked questions is generally only a day so you can go over your errors while the test is still fresh in your mind.

Avrodamo,. .. .Your school will fill you in on what to take for the exams. You should also feel a little more relaxed after 2 weeks intensive classroom cramming. Mock exams will certainly bring you up to speed.. .. .Gatwick has a canteen where you can have lunch. After most exams though you will only have time for a toilet break, debrief with other victims or perhaps a quick cram. . .. .Two tips I can give however are:. .1) Dont waste time during your exam. If a question has you stumped move on. Dont stare at the paper for 2 minutes before deciding you cant answer it. Just guess and come back to it if you have time.. .. .2) In the evening write down as many questions as you can possibly remember. If you fail an exam you can ask your school to answer the questions you remembered. You are bound to bump into a couple of previous questions in a resit.. .. .Of course you wont fail any, but just in case.... .. .MAX <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" />
