ATPL ground school small class size

Hi

Is their anywhere that does the ATPL ground school in very small class numbers and possibly at a quicker pace than 6mth maybe 3months due to size of class although probably more money ?


Cheers

As far as I know all ground schools operate on a 6 month cycle. Some do 2 x 7 modules and others do 3 x 4/5.

IMHO you need a class size of 10 -20.
To small ..no class interaction
To large.. become bun fight ..unmanageable.

Most FTO's want to maximize bums on seats..but some will reconise optimum class size.. if only because they know a relationship between class size and results .

Ask for recommendations near were you live or want to be.

I'm starting a 6 month residential course in 2 months time. My perception is that 6 months is already quite compact, so to think you could do all 14 exams in 3 months seems a bit too ambitious.

I don't know if my opinion will be different after the course, but I suspect not.
