Don't worry about a school not accepting you for theory - they're all businesses so will take money from anyone. The problem is more that many FIs seem to either dislike giving ground school or may not have the necessary depth of knowledge or academic rigour to do it well. That's why I suggested trying to find someone who's been around for a while, who
understands the subjects rather than just parrots what they have learned, and who enjoys teaching.
I'm no longer "darn sarf". I operated, primarily, around Hampshire and Wiltshire for many years but have moved to beautiful, rural and relaxed, Herefordshire. People come here for semi-residential ground school and PPL exams so let me know if you fancy spending a day or two going through some of the subjects. Getting a full understanding of both sides of the wizz wheel won't take long and may make you a convert for life ;-)
