another DITHOR 4/5 question

Post by jacynamommy » Thu Sep 19, 2013 11:03 am

So I understand that in DITHOR 4/5, we'll only do half of the books this year. Here's my confusion...if there are 9 units, then how do you divide that in half? Do we actually end up doing 4 units and only half of the 5th unit in a year? I'm trying to plan ahead and I can't wrap my mind around where we'll end up at the end of the year if there's an uneven number of units... Thanks for any advice!!! :?:

So, my understanding is that you do DITHOR 3 days a week. It takes 20-21 days I think to do each genre, so it would take 100-105 days to do 5 genres. At three days a week, that is only 33-35 weeks - about 1 year. So then next year you would only have 4 genres to do.

That is correct, it turns out to be 4 one year, 5 the next or vice versa. :D
