I was recently at ATA and I don't think they do the brush ups any more. Oxford however, do. I was happy with ATA, I did the full course though. (most subjects they do very well, a couple could be done better.)

ATA a shambles?
I got through the Nav group of exams with an average mark of 84% with them. The rest of the students in my group all scored very highly, with no-one getting any less than 4 passes out of 7.
Still there working my way through the tech group. There are, as redsnail says, a couple of subjects that could do with a bit of polishing up, but all in all, it is a very professional outfit who actually give a damn about the students that pass through their doors.

Tristar Freak,
I agree that ATA very much have their heart in the right place but the organisation as a whole appears to be rather disorganised and only surviving due to the support of their parent company. With Bristol I averaged 93% in the nav exams, I suspect my tech results will be very much below that having brushed up at ATA.

Greaser, I think you are confusing ATA with Atlantic Flight Training. I finished my groundschool at ATA earlier in the year and like Redsnail and Tristar Freak was very happy with them.

I sat the M&B in October using the Bristol notes and feedback and got 92%. Sat Perf, JAR Ops and Air Law at Silsoe this week - Perf a scrape? others should be 90's. My personal experience/advice is:
1. Pay for Bristols M&B practice exams they're worth every penny, however I don't know whether they'll sell them seperately. Asking others who have paid for their notes/feedback to copy is not only a copyright issue but it doesn't help the financial situation of the FTO; clearly from recent examples FTO's are not all rich. AFT's Air Law notes and feedback are highly recommended.
2. The conference centre at Silsoe is highly recommended for the exams, their rooms are a 9/8 iron from the exam room!
3. If you want more details on Silsoe and the feedback I have passed to others please send me your email address on the private message system.
