- admissionsguy 2y agoYup, prerequisites is all you need. I can go through any course of study in a week as long as I'd mastered it before.
- OJFord 2y agoI don't think that's true, thinking back to university, if I 'locked myself in a hotel room' and did nothing but study a given topic, I reckon you could get a decent grasp of more than one lecture course. Of course not being able to ask someone any questions would be disadvantage (but is that even a 'rule' of this scenario? Surely at least the internet is allowed, i.e. a person to ask who's available to anyone), and it would have been a lot easier while at university than with X years' rust on the background maths etc. - but still, seven full days is a lot of time if you choose to completely dedicate it to some particular thing, we just generally don't do that, so it doesn't sound it.
