Title: Medentry 2 day lecture worth it?
Post by: horizon on January 06, 2012, 10:12:57 pm
Hey,
I was just wondering if people thought that the 2 day lecture at Medentry was worth it....
Like do they give you good notes, is the stuff self explanatory, what kind of stuff they cover....
Would you guys recommend distance ed package over it or not?

Thanks in advance.

most people thought it was pretty crap, depends if you want to fork out extra money for it.
i personally didn't go, and found the questions on their site to be more than enough :D

It's not worth $400 or so, if you can find some friends and get it for cheaper through the discount then I'd go for it :)

. Isn't is $560 each witb the discount? 0.0 anyway, is the online resources the same thing as distance package? Also can't you just get people who've done medentry to lend you the practice papers, pay them like $100 to photocopy them if you don't want the two day workshops?

Yes, so if you can get it for $560, then it's worth the $160, it's not just about the practice paper at the workshop, it's the other subtleties you pick up, I picked up some very very good tips from the workshop, amazing tips too, plus I met a lot of awesome people and the discussion is really good - for $160 it's defs worth it

But what's the $160 for?

It's for the lecture, because it'll be $400 if you just want the online stuff without the lecture (there's no group discount on that package). So essentially it's $160 for going to the lecture

I'm working through their stuff online, and it is pretty self-explanatory - and things just make sense more with practice, i am going to attend the two day lecture in a couple of months... but until then the drills and eureka are great :)
