Ahh I see well I was planning on going in self funded and yes I have heard that they take their sweet time. To be honest starting mid next year isn't too bad. I can spend that time doing all the things I want to do before I am nose deep in books for 18 months.
I've just been speaking to my friend who is about half way through his first phase of ground school and he says its brutal at the moment. 9-5 in the classroom and then in the study area till midnight but hes still enjoying it.
Although it sounds intense I knew it would be and to be honest I don't mind that to get to achieve my dream.
Also has anyone on here actually sat the Jerez aptitude test?
