As for being counter productive it certainly can be, hence why I stated no more than 4. Anyway, just some advice and from doing it a few times over the years, it seems those that group up have an easier time than those who dont and as an added bonus, you will usually make some friends that will stick with you for your career.
Yeah, the school houses definitely push that, I agree. I think most people know how to study by this point, assuming they’re a college graduate. That being the case, continue to do what works. I’ve always hated group study and found it a waste of time. But if the OP has never tried group study, absolutely they should see if it works. Either way, they do need to buddy up with someone for their first 121 training event. It’s definitely a lot to take in until you get the hang of it.
I also agree being social is important, and hanging out with my classmates over the years has netted me some pretty cool friends.
