I have been through training five times at Skywest, and have spent one weekend not at home. If you are able to study during the week, and get the flows memorizied you will be fine. During the week I would go to class, then right after class go to the gym. I would then get dinner and study with guys on class. Going to the gym allowed me to decompress after being in class for eight hours. During sim I would go home if I had two or more days off. From my experience the guys who study nonstop for sustems end up behind for FTD and sim.
