say the heading was Pressure..Pressure would be in a bubble and a line off it to another bubble with QNH in it another off pressure with QFE , can be further bubbles off QNH etc etc can be as involved or simple as you like...works for me...:)

Something I was wondering about here..
 

Is it common practice in the UK to take the ATPL in two phases.

I've seen it so many times in your posts that you finished module 1 and started module/phase 2.

I think it is almost vital to split these 14 subjects into two parts, however, that is not the practice where I study.

We are suppose to take all the subjects in one session, so in some cases we have to take up to two exams per day.

My question is therefore: do nearly all the schools split the subjects into two segments or not ?

All the UK schools do, proxus, although they choose their own split by subject (I teach for one of them). It is a distortion of the rules introduced by the UK CAA that I believe they forced the JAA to accept, so as to make the system more reasonable. Note on some days students might still take 4 exams. The 14 are sat on a 4-day timetable; for first sitting the student will only take half, but 4 might be on the same day.

So is this the trend throughout Europe maybe ?
If it is so, some things has to change where I come from.

Having the policy that you have to take all 14 subjects in one go is just calling for poor grades allthough it is still possible to make it in one go.

When I studied the JAT ATPLs to help me revise I would make cards with the subject topic on top (makes sense that, doesn't it) and all the relevant points underneath. So, when reviewing the topic, instead of wading through pages of notes, I had little memory cards to use. Cover up the info and try to remember all the points. Lift up your hand, see how you went.
I got lots of these little cards and it makes reviewing a topic quite easy.
