I'm not great with forms, and the Schengen one was worse than any I've seen. I realised from their guidance that I needed an updated insurance policy with the right coverage. Took me roughly an hour and a half including gathering documents. The consulate clerk even commented that my file was well prepared. I liked that I didn't have to create ten accounts across random sites to get this done. Can't recommend it enough. Slight feedback: a downloadable checklist PDF would be perfect.
