Is anyone else taking longer to complete lessons longer than estimated time?

I find that going through the curriculum so far I find that I end up spending way longer.
For example, I just completed my Wrong answer journal with my diagnostic being the June 2007 LSAT. I find that I spent way more than two hours over the course of two days to complete it. I counted my hours and I spent seven hours going though it. On my Blind review for the same test it took me about 7-8 hours to go through it. I originally started doing the lessons, arguments, but I decided to restart my progress to do a diagnostic first. I write notes for my lessons and do the quizzes, but I find that it takes me four hours to do a lesson that is estimated to take 2 hours in total. Here is how I have it spread out to work on it currently. My schedule that I plan to follow is this to do the argument lessons,

Schedule:
T- 1.3 hr (lessons)(rounded to 2-3hrs because I write notes and stuff)
W- 1.6 hr (lessons)(rounded to 2-3hrs because I write notes and stuff)
Th- Review notes on topic + Make anki deck on important terms
Fri-1.8 hr( lessons and notes)
St- Review Notes + Anki Deck
Sn- Rest day
M- Start next session

Should I just go through the videos then write notes when I am finished. I am uncertain how they wanted people to reach the estimated times.

    I think mostly everyone takes wayyy longer to complete the lessons than the estimated time. Unless, of course, they are from J.Y.'s bloodline which unfortunately is not the case for me lol

    If it helps, usually the written format of the video is underneath the video. Maybe not in earlier lessons but as you progress the written format is underneath.

    Yes, they definitely take me way longer than the estimated time. Perhaps they should consider making changes to how they estimate time length to complete a lesson. Regardless, I would recommend that you take as long as you need to complete each lesson.
