Realistic time to complete Distance learning ATPLs

I know this will vary from person to person, but what is a realistic or the average time it should take to study and complete the 14 ATPLs. I currently work a full-time shift roster, and would be able to do about 50/60 hours study every month.

I am just finishing up my PPL at the moment and the Flight school im training in offers the Oxford Distance Learning package. I have heard that oxford goes very deep into subjects so with the amount of time I can study a month, do you think i should go with an ATPL course that gets to the point but doesn't waffle too much?

I'd appreciate if some of the guys (particularly those who used Oxford) could give me a rough time line on how long it took you to get through the study and what your circumstances were with work and study time etc.

much appreciated
