Sometimes people need to pass fast because they need to be able to drive for work or get to where they are working. The driving standards required to pass a test are just the same, whether you did a crash course or had regular weekly driving lessons. However, an advantage to a crash course is that you get your test out the door quicker, and it is easier to learn things in one sitting for some people. While it is nice for some people to space the lessons on a weekly basis, for others, they will forget what they learned from week to week and then spend way too much time during a lecture going over what they learned in the week before.
