opinions on bristol G.S distance atpl course

I'm looking for opinions on which school to do the distance ATLP(A) course with. Ive looked at OAT, GTS Bournmouth and Bristol G.S. They seem similar enough in price but think that perhaps Bristol would be the better course provider. Could anyone please advise. Also i would be interested in finding out:

1) Opinions on what the work load is like for the home study as I currently work 5 days a week, intending to cut that to 4 which leaves 3 days and the evenings to study. Is the recommended 15 hrs per week enough for a person of average academic ability to pass the exams?I havent a great academic past and naturally feel cautious about the difficulty of the course ahead.

2)Is the online support which Bristol offers enough to help a student of average ability?

3)On average, how long does it take a student from start to finish to complete the distance course and exams?

Thanks,
Dc1
