Well I made it to the first review lesson of DLI Basic French. I did the lesson first without the audio to test my knowledge and then again with the adio to check my answers and shadow the dialogue. I did ok, I only made one or two mistakes and I knew enough of the material that I modified some of the questions/answers to respond in the negative and affirmative. I also picked up a copy of easy french step by step to study grammar but after looking at the FSI French Basic course I think I'd learn the same grammar points while also having drills to pound the information into my brain. I guess it comes down to how much I learn vs how much effort I have to put in to learn it. I tend to understand grammatical points better if I have lots of examples. For now, I'll use all three to learn while I decide which ones help the most.
Do to my work schedule my extensive and intensive reading is limited to weekends but thats ok for now, two hours of dli + grammar study on weekdays plus reading books and watching tv shows/movies on the weekends should have a positive impact on my French.
