I can get the Home study course for my brother, however, if it would seem to be better/more productive to go to a seminar. For this I would be willing to save up some cash for me to 'send' my little brother to this seminar. Also, we'd have to wait a several months for the seminar to be close to my neck of the woods.

Either way, put up this post to get some input from all who have done either of these, so as to make an informed choice before I fork over the money.

Younprer,
I'm sure you ARE faster than I am since my comprehension is not as high as that, I feel that it's really not a matter of how FAST you PR, but how fast, flexible and willing you are to accept changes in your attitude and point of view.
In your case, you have been taught well, youngprer!
