I wouldnt reccomend it really mate..... best to learn at your own pace, whether you're naturally fast or need more gentle coaxing. You'll only get to find that pace with a decent, experienced instructor or school who won't rush you (or purposely hold you back to wring more cash out), rather than something with a fixed and likely far too short set of lessons.

They'll probably train you well in the required (and slightly anachronistic) disciplines needed to pass your test but not really instill much proper roadcraft (and i aint meaning ray mears!). If you are a natural and can do well with only a short set, or you desperately need it for a job, then so be it... if you're maybe not naturally set for driving greatness from day one (it's a genetic thing, i reckon) then it could be terrible.

Think of it more in terms of a 3-day CBT bike training course..?
