Accelerated courses are not for everyone. I attended one in Florida, and the pressure you are putting yourself under can be counterproductive. When you are not flying you are studying, and if you are the kind of person who mulls over mistakes, you are going to make a lot of them in a very short period so your mind will be overloaded!
I personally would have been better off spending my money doing the ppl at a more relaxed pace: although the US is cheaper, for me some of the flying time was wasted because I was still thinking about why the last lesson went badly when getting into the next one.
If you can put errors behind you immediately and are prepared to put a lot of effort in, it can be great, and you get guaranteed weather and cheaper flights.
The condensed format means it can be easy to forget stuff quickly afterwards.
