This has been discussed in other threads, but I wonder if anybody has any other ideas.
How do you approach Platiquemos?

Work on it a Unit at a time, moving ahead when you feel you have it learned?
Move quickly through the course, but repeat it over and over?
Move through the course at a certain pace, maybe one unit a week?

I was thinking about going through the course one mp3 file at a time. I was thinking about repeating each file until I get it all correct without the book, doing some sort of review schedule also for previous lessons. I suspect this would take a long time, but might actually leave me speaking Spanish.

That is an interesting idea. Some of the tracks are very short and some of them are very long. I think the course could be fairly flexible. At times I have thought of going through it in numerous ways... go through all the dialogue build ups... or just the response drills... or just do half an hour a day. At one point I thought it would be a good idea to edit the audio and turn the dialogues into a more regular sounding dialogue and shadow the dialogues (that seems unreasonable, though). It really is a great course and seems quite flexible.

I had the same idea, but also decided against it. I'm not sure it's a bad idea though!
