Grrr CATS vs BRISTOL

Hello guys,
I'm italian and need to convert my FAA licence.
So first thing is get ATPL; distance learning is my way but I need to choose between CATS and BRISTOL.

About Bristol, there is only and always good words, it's one of the best schools.....about CATS i don't found anything.

The price is different: Distance learning with CATS is 1000£ (on line course, I don't think books or other) Bristol is 2100£.

CATS split exam in 3 and need 5 days brush up before each session.....Bristol split in 2 with 2 weeks (!!!!) brush up before each session.
2 weeks is a lot of time, because is 2 brush up + 1 exam...at the end 6 weeks. Very hard for one that work like me, and I assume 2 weeks brush up are compulsory.
May I have some witness about CATS?
