Started in Mid October, still bashing though the phase 1 reading ... was originally hoping to be doing brush up now for phase 1 but i'm behind my schedule I set ... Im not having a mad panic though, just keeping the momentum going.
I generally take my books with me wherever I go... I get 40mins each way on the train to study, 1-2 hrs in the eve (not every eve though) and try and do 1-2 full days per weekend. My aim is to use any dead time (travelling etc) reading notes. I tried the old 3hrs each eve, but it just doesnt happen some nights and like other said, when your looking at the same paragraph for 20mins its time for a beer!
At the moment, I reckon I'll be done by xmas
