carbheatout without wishing to stamp on your achievment, I don't think that your ethos of 'just doing the feedback' is a particularly good one........
Certainly, there is a lot of feedback in the JAA exams, but it is by no means watertight. Maybe a little while ago yes, but the question bank is mutating very fast and you really need to know the subject now to get high marks.......also, if you go to interview and you get technical questions on a subject, you aren't gonna have 4 answers to choose from, you are gonna dig yourself a hole if you try to answer something that is beyond your 'question bank'.
Personally, I'd rather have no life for 6 months and i'm sure almost everyone here at oxford would agree. Perhaps the fact that you weren't willng to sacrifice yours says something...............just a thought...............
p.s. arizona was AMAZING!
