Instrument Rating Training (Modular)

I'm looking at starting the 55 hour (35 Sim, 20 a/c) IR course at my school shortly, and to compare with other peoples experiences (so I know what I should expect)- If anyone else who has been down the modular route recently could spare the time to answer a few questions it would be much appreciated

Roughly, and assuming good availability on a full time course

1) How long do the Sim and Aircraft sections of the course take, respectively? 2) How long do the sorties/sessions last in the air and in the Sim?
3) Did you usually fly/have a Sim session every day?
4) How much home or "out of school" study did you do?
5) How useful was it back seating other flights.
6) Did your training schedule go to plan? (Were there any tech issues, weather delays or additional training required)

I'm just trying to gauge how demanding the course will be and how much time I will be left with.

Any other Pre-IR hints and tips will also be appreciated

Thanks!
