@123sprout,

Of course you can join us, buddy.

@psych25,

Thanks for the info. If archer is an online course, then it must be better than reading notes
But let us wait and see more reviews before deciding on subscribing it.

And of course, I agree with your FA idea too. Let's wait and see depending on how we get on with
the available materials first!

Hey guys,

Anyone has any idea about where to start and how?

What is the plan, just by the forum?

@filomena,

Yeah, via forum so that we could share the information.

Please feel free to join us! Any input from you guys is welcome too!


@phxeagles,

Thanks a lot for the brilliant study plan! We were all wondering how and where to make a start. (Or may be it was just an excuse!)

So lets have this as an initial sketch and start for now and hopefully can do more modifications as we go along, according to individual circumstance & study method.

So here is the plan:

1. Irrespective of when we plan to start, we could do any 8 weeks based on individual circumstances) but to make it easy, lets count 1 week as: Monday to Friday

2. We should keep weekends to finish pending portions (in case if we didn't manage to finish during the week).

3. As phxeagles suggested, MTB-3 is a very good place to start. But I wonder how many of us will be able to finish it within 1 week. So, lets come up with a goal. That is, even if MTB-3 spills over a week, we should still go ahead and subscribe to UW.

4. That means, until we finish MTB-3, we should also UW alongside while still aiming to finish the quota for the day. i.e 1 block + 1 CCS.

What do u guys think? Any better suggestions welcome.
