Sorry if these questions have been asked before. I've enrolled in TPR (with time left to get a refund) and I'm somewhat doubting my decision. I am taking the test in August and the course is set to start on May 19.
How much extra studying time is usually needed on top of the actual class time? I'm working full time so the only time I'll actually have to study are Friday nights, some Saturdays, and Sundays. Considering the fact that there are 8 official CBTs plus the 5 mandatory TPR ones (+ 6 extras), I'd be doing almost 2 CBTs every weekend. I'd end up spending weekend mornings testing and then the afternoon and evenings studying. I'd have essentially no free time for 3 months. Maybe this IS the commitment that needs to be made, but I feel this is very overwhelming.
I'm thinking that maybe I should just study on my own. To the people that have taken the TPR courses themselves, would you say that the hyperlearning books on their own are comparable the material that you get in class? Thanks.
