Theoretically, how long should it take me to level?

Ohhey Basil. Anyway, I've been on my Wind Archer a lot recently since I'm on Thanksgiving break, and I was wondering how much I should be leveling, especially since my activity on Maple is severely limited due to the fact that I go to a boarding school.
(And BEFORE you ask, it's not one of those military-boot-camp ones. It's actually a really preppy school rich brats and everything. My family is pretty much middle class and I'm only really there on a triumvirate of an academics/piano/tennis scholarship. :U)

OT: I try to MCPQ as much as possible. Either standard or TW, if available. I'm surprised at how easy leveling has gotten. I've heard countless stories of people getting 3rd job in less than two months. Pretty appalling for a guy who took a year and a half to make a lv. 43 cleric.
In short (not counting the giant break I had with this character after level 15-ish), it took me about three weeks to make 30-35. Is that normal? Too fast? Too slow? Is there anything I can do to speed it up? I'm not really that funded, but I'll try my best.
I'd really appreciate your help.

Here's a video of a Wind Archer that illustrates the method:

[quote=hyperfire7]I also have a Wind Archer, and let me tell you, you have the ability to COMPLETELY OWN CPQ.
Simply max Storm Break and Wind Walk immediately. Then do repeat the following sequence: Wind Walk --> Storm Break.
With this method you should able to solo as much as 1400 CP in room 3/4 with max rombots.
You'll also get to Lv50 in no time.[/quote]

I'm a concert pianist, I've been playing for nine years. I'm also a L1/L1+ tennis player. I'll admit that I've never played in an L1C before, but who cares?
Didn't I make it clear that I DON'T spend enough time on Maple? :<

I think you mean PyPQ. PPQ is pirate pq, a pq for level 55~100. PyPQ is pyramid pq, for lvl 40+.

OHHEY BEST FRIEND NOW, K. >:I

[quote=vSolo]Wait till BB and you can get to 70 in 2 days.[/quote]

DO WANT.

Anyway, thanks. I've been engrossed in the Mushroom Castle thingy for a while. Now I just need to kill ~200 Helmet Pepe's and I think I'm done.
And if it helps, I tend to play around an hour or so a day. Maybe more on weekends. I used to play a lot, but not train, because my irl friends had no lives along with me, so all we'd do was just talk, but now I've got nothing better to do than just wither away at MCPQ. ;~;

FOREVER ALONE. :U

It took me 2 days from 31-40 on GS at CPQ, all i did is ask my teammates if they wanted to solo and went afk and had a timer with me set for 10 mins so i knew when to come back XD
