For one the weather plays a huge factor. During the winter the freezing level drops and makes cross countrys hard to do. I have gone one month between flights. That and you only get scheduled twice a week.
There are other students in a very similiar position. For some students it takes longer to do the flying than all the classwork. I know two people that have been working on their commercial for two years.
