I am studying with Bristol Groundschool. Still got Mod 2 and another 6 exams to do, but for now I am going to enjoy the moment.
How did everyone else do ?

Agony!!!!
First of all well done Northern.
Secondly of all is anyone interested in froming our own breakaway CAA? There will be fat py packs, generous holidays and short working days and low productivity levels. No, hang on thats the way it is already, we better do something different. I'll get back to you on that.
Last month the people who had the results sent to their houses got them a day or two after the schools. This month my school hasnt got the results and the people who had them sent to the school have. Another feat of achievment for the CAA.
everyone else has them and I dont!!!!!!!!

Still waiting on mine (hopefully will be on the doorstep upon my return home today).
Congratulations NHF especially on the instruments, it was a bitch of a paper and i think I`ve failed it!!! (mind you I thought I`d passed it last time and failed quite badly)
I would add that the waiting is the worst part but the worst part to my mind is opening the envelope to find all fails!!!!!

Phew...
Got my results as well. Seems that the one I was sure I had failed I actually passed with 75%, that would be R-nav.
I had a narrow miss on the rest, 74% and so on.
Feeling miserable but it can only be up from here on in!
Congrats to you NHF.

Well i've just got the final 6 in the bag. Lowest pass 85%, highest 95%. All I can say is well done Bristol GS for getting me through all 14 first time, you have some great instructors.
I'm off for a gin and tonic (or three!).

I'll second what 54.98N says, thanks to Bristol, I managed to get all 14 first time, even Principles of Flight, which I was really dreading.
Bad luck 1 in 60, I'm sure you'll do better with the resits.
How did the rest of the mod 2 guys at Bristol in March get on?

At long last
Well I am so glad that there is post on a Saturday in the UK. They finally arrived into the school this morning. Feeling rather chuffed with myself.Nav 94%, FPL 84%, PoF 87%, Met 85% makes all 14 exams. Big thanks to Keith Williams and everyone at EPTA who are very very good at what they do.
I will second what Need4Speed23 said. It has taken me a long time to get here and there were times when I was quite sure I could not get through it but you have to be very determined. I think if I can get through it anyone can! Happy days!

Hi,
Lots and lots of positive feedback from Bristol GS students.
I have been researching schools for two years now, never heard a bad comment on them as of yet.
Just wanted to ask...theres a lot of praises on Bristol and its intructors etc. But isnt it mostly up to you? Its a distance learning course after all...?

Pilot16,
If you are an average fellow like what I is, then you will go into the two week brush-up course having worked hard at home, but still feeling a little unconfident and not sure of more than a few things. After two weeks you will be slick and quick!

Well done to all who got through, especially those with all 14. For you it's back to real life flying now.
1 in 60, so close mate, keep at it and nail them next time.
Good luck to all.

I received my final exam result last week, getting 89% in Instruments. That's all fourteen done now. It took me well over a year to pass these exams and I had nine failures in total. A miserable year courtesy of the JAA and there obscure and verbose questions! On one sitting I failed all five of the exams that I took. All this is despite being with a top ground school, my massive dedication and a good academic background.
Not everyone passes these exams with ease and if you start to struggle then you will will need to be both patient and persistant. I had to change ground school when things looked bad and it was only changing to Ground Training Services in Bournemouth that got me through the exams. Anyone who is still struggling would do well to get there hands on the stolen JAA questions bank that is being hawked around on the net. I know that sounds nasty but it's still a good idea. Be warned though, you will still need some understanding of the course material to pass a few subjects. Hang in there and you will pass in the end!

What an absolutely stupid, careless, idiotic statement. I thought the idea of all this study is to learn all about the subjects. This is not a "what good is this in the real world" argument. The fact is we must learn it. I know it may be a strange concept, and heaven forbid anyone does understand any of the 14 subjects. I'm all in favour of using feedback at the correct time in my study - ONLY when I understand it and need a feel for how it will be examined. I think it's a sad day when you think understanding it is a bad thing.
