If you can I'd break it into, two, one month chunks. I managed to take
one month off and was amazed how much I could get done.

Subject: OT: Time off to Study
Hi,
Does anyone have any thoughts/experiences on taking time off work to
study?
I am contemplating taking 2 months off work to study, though I am yet to
approach my employer. I'm not sure whether it would be an effective use
of
time or whether I would burn out after a few weeks of constant study.
The
other option is that I use the money that I would have lost by not
working
and spend it on a bootcamp, though realistically being at the beginning
of
my study rather than towards the end, I'm not sure how beneficial a
bootcamp
would be. I have the IE work book and CoD so I would rather spend the
time
working through those and doing some labs.
I am aware of the financial impact that this will have but I am finding
that
there aren't enough hours in the day to make serious headway in the
material
that I need to cover for the lab. I can imagine that most people in this
group are suffering the same time scheduling problems and wanted to hear
from anyone that has taken time off to study and whether they found it
useful or not.
Thanks,
David
