Would the providers (BGS, CATS, etc) be ok with that, or do they expect their students to complete their “in-house” course before the consolidation ?
Thanks for your input.

As far as I know, you need to be signed up to an ATO and attend their brush-up course preceding the examinations.
Only recently, I heard of a student who sat all 14 exams, passed all first time but to then be flagged up in a CAA audit that showed he hadn't attended any brush-up courses, which resulted in all exams being wiped.
