although I think you've overestimated the cost of travel and accomodation
21 nights accom @ £20= £420
Return EZ GLA-BRS =£100
Bus to & fro GS £3/day = £45

total = £565


These are conservative estimates as £20 in a B&B especially in a big city like Bristol I think i s a low estimate.

EZ fly Gla- Bristol. a return with them anywhere usually ends up around the £100 mark after taxes fees etc are added on. (No way would I sit on a bus, train or car for about 9 hours with 3 weeks hard slog and exam prep in front of me).

Unless B&B is really close to GS £3 return trip on a bus is a pretty low estimate.

Yes, there will be living expenses whether you live away or at home. At home I could go home to my beans on toast for about a £1 a day. in B&B it will be big macs and fries at a fiver a time every night.

Multiply this by two for Modules 1&2 and I could save well over a grand.

Forgot to add, I suppose there will be the odd obligatory pints with the rest of the course, suppose I would be doing that too in Glasgow but pints are a lot cheaper in Scotland lol.

What is the B&B rate in Bristol anyway?

Cheers
