Why do it if it's not fun?

Timzsta,

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on whether a week was long enough for the brush-up.

I did consider LGU very carefully, because the idea of only having to do one week brush-up was very appealing, considering that I'd have to take this out of my annual holiday allowance. But in the end I decided that, if it was possible to cover the material in one week, all the schools would do it - the fact that every other school had a two-week brush-up course suggested that one week was pushing it a little.

And, having now done the Bristol two-week brush-up course for both of their modules, I'm very pleased I made that choice - I can't see how it could be possible to cover everything in one week. In fact, two weeks really wasn't long enough for Module 2.

Granted that the LGU course is split into 3 modules now, whereas the other schools do it in 2 modules - this wasn't the case when I started the DL a year ago, at that time LGU still had 2 modules with a week's brush-up for each.

Thanks,

FFF
