In the middle part of an Assimil course, you are doing one passive wave lesson followed by a "five minute" active wave lesson from earlier in the book. Does anybody do two active wave lessons per day once they have finished all the lessons in the book in the passive wave?

Yes I'm doing just that. I thought I would benefit from another review of the lessons from the second half of the book, so once I had finished the passive wave I started doing an extra active lesson 10 lessons behind my current lesson. So if I'm doing lesson 95 then I will also do lesson 85.

Bump.
I'd like to get more opinions on this as well.

Nope, one is just enough for me. If I had to do it any more times I would just get bored.

Do you mean one active lesson a day or just one pass through the WHOLE active wave?

Both. I follow the instructions exactly as Assimil lays them out for you.

Me too. However, I do use more than 5 minutes a day on the active phase (because in addition to translating the
lesson I listen to the audio, read the lesson aloud a few times, read the notes etc.)
