I am planning to do a full time integrated course at the end of this year at either oxford or jerez.
Having read these forums for some time now, i have come to the conclusion that it's not the content of the ATPL that is difficult but the sheer volume of what you have to learn and commit to memory.
My question is, should i purchase the manuals now and start reading them so that when i start my training, i will be very familiar with topics that will be covered in the classroom?
One side of me is saying that it is a wise idea, but the other side is saying that given the profession i am about to enter, i should be able to cope with the content of the course in the time allocated - ie 18 months or so - and will give an indication of my ability for future courses, ie type ratings.
I would be grateful for any advise/feedback anyone may have.
