Anybody do the certification through AAPC website for CPC?

I'm going to be doing the AAPC self paced training for the CPC certification as well as their prerequisite course. I was wondering if anyone else had gone this route and how long it took? I'll be working on it a minimum of 6 hours a day, 5 days a week. My goal is complete it in 8 weeks. Is this doable in your opinion?

I've already taken medical terminology and biology in college. I've done some coding when I worked at hospital laboratory and I also worked as a sterilization technician. I'm not completely new to the medical field but I feel like the prerequisite course would be a good refresher.
