Hi Cloud 99
I also decided Uni was not for me. Why get into debt doing a degree when I can get an fATPL instead...
Anyway, with regards to modular/intergrated, I decided modular because I had to work in between. Integrated wouldn't have allowed me to do this. Integrated is also a lot more expensive and you get exactly the same ticket in the end. You could do an integrated-modular f-ATPL...basically, do it modular but full time (work at weekends, fly during the week).
Good luck with whatever you decide.
Cheers
