If I could have done the classroom route I would have taken it hands down,it is very hard for me to resist going out instead of studying and takes real commitment.I admit I have probably been slack in my study recently as going on holiday in the middle really put the brakes on,you have to be able to timetable study time 5 days a week and stick to it regardless.I am now firmly back on track
FWIW I have supplemented my Bristol notes with some Oxford CBT CD roms,I have found that just reading alone is not enough for me to really take in and understand,it is much easier to see things graphically which is lacking to some extent on the Bristol DVD as this is more of an electronic version of the folders with a few graphic illustrations.
Extremely satisfied with Bristol though, in no way do I imply anything else its just my thick skull !
