Best Advice in tackling ATPL' exams...

This is a bit of a thread on gauging best advice's/tips on the ATPL...

After much deliberation I have decided to crack out the ATPL exams as Distance Learning due to various commitments. Recently a newly qualified PPL.

I am still deciding if I will go the whole way CPL/IR/ME/JOC etc but have always given myself the 'pep talk' that I would at least get the ATPL's and CPL out the way.. even if i decide to pursue flying as a Instructor/Fun/Corporate etc.

The minimum was always going to be the ATPL/CPL..

I have to say though that I am 80% sure that I will end up going all the way. A risk I know, lack of job security I know, state of industry I know etc etc

As a 'DL' what is the best advice of cracking out the ATPL's?

Practically possible in 6 months?

Here is what i know...

* Should aim to get 90% above.
* Volume of work is high - not a problem as I am used to this.
* Sit within the 6 sittings rule.
* Maths and Physics might be challenging - Will prep for this.
* Take your time? 12 months if needed?

Thanks.
