Day 1 was the 1 of January, roughly 150 days to go. On the 4 Jan 08 a lab date was booked and flights at the same time. This was probably the best thing I did. At this point I just knew I was going to do the lab and had no equipment or preparation material.
The first month I spent about 30 hours towards preparation, the majority of the time was setting up equipment, finding old equipment, waiting for equipment to arrive from ebay etc. As soon as my study material arrived I started to do full labs, this was a mistake. I took advice I read on Ethan’s blog and started with technology focussed labs.
