100 Hours of study requirement has gone
Still need to pass all 9 exams in 6 Sittings
(Where a Sitting is one ten day period)
Schools must recommend that you are ready to sit
any exam(s) so there will be at least that as a 'Classroom'
exercise.
Depends where you live but you could speak with the CFI (also a Ground
Examiner) at FlyElstree (Elstree Aerodrome) who is fairly amenable to what
a student is trying to achieve.
