This is why I suggested posting here, Oxford. An integrated course is not significantly quicker than a modular one, more likely a month than 3 months. Were it not for weather and illness (that would have affected me equally on either standard) I would have passed my modular course in the same time as most integrated courses. The flight experience I already had saved me some time, exactly balanced by the fact that I managed to take 3 weeks full-time work in the middle when a former employer needed me. I could not have been described as having unusual concentration or determination at that time: more depressed and unmotivated because of the difficult times that had put me into civilian flight training. I did, however, deliberately choose a school that could offer me all the training, so I could sit through their standard, structured training programme, in the same way I would have in an integrated course.
P.S. If you think I am just here for some inter-school rivalry, read my comments on the thread about Oxford's notes. I was defending you guys, because although they are not exactly as I would have written them I think they are good notes! What I post here is my opinion, nothing more or less.
