You said you have some of them done yeah? so you already know what it takes study wise,
did you do a law degree? I felt that the other lectures would be covering too much old gorund for me anyway. If you have experience of those topics already the other stuff would just be repetition. For instance the seminars were on late august early sept which was the time i started to really get into the studying although admittedly i was not working at the time so had more time to devote to the process. The one day aspect meant that any stuff that was to be cut was and there was no filling up time with useless information on topics that were not likely to be on the papers.
