study hours for ATPL's

hey,

i am due to go into the big wide world of work soon (scary!) and hope to combine my flight training with a graduate job to pay my way. i was just wondering what the 'average' time needed to put into the ATPL exams are - just a rough guide would do.

i know a lot of it will be to do with my aptitude for the subjects etc. but I just need to know whether I should be saving all my accrued holidays for exam time or studying in the evenin/weekends and using holidays for hour building and currency flights.

cheers.


i would be interested if anyone has a thread on combining work and flight training as i still havent much of a clue about timescales and how to fit the training round holidays (think i get about 40 days per year - not inc. weekends). also - how do you fit it in without letting your employer know you dont really wanna work there? (i'm a bad liar!)
