I have 2 resits to do, is it worth doing the BGS brush up

As it says above, 2 to go (Rad Nav and POF) and not sure whether I'll be wasting my time going to Bristol for 2 weeks. I don't have to pay (I think/hope), as I've already paid for Module 1, but ended up going to the Guildhall. So, will it be worth the time and 2 weeks B&B?
Also, how is it set out at BGS? first week lessons, second week prep exams or just 2 weeks of lessons?

Cheers

I would say yes they got me through. Some ex students of mine have gone there for brush up after problems all praised JAR training. However am CAA system so don't know current details.

Why do it if it's not fun?

You've already sat the exams, so you know what they're like. You also know how easy/difficult you find these subjects. And you know what marks you got on your first attempts. Only you can know how much benefit you'll get from the brush-ups.

As for the format of the course, it varies from subject to subject. For subjects with lots of theory, it tends to be much more lesson-based, with feedback questions to back up the learning, whereas those subjects which are just a learning excercise concentrate much more on the feedback. I haven't done Mod 2 yet, but I'd imagine that both of the subjects you're doing would have a lot of lessons.

Good luck!
