[B-Greek] Recommendations about how to learn Attic Greek

Carl Conrad seems to recommend the JACT (Joint Association of Classical Teachers) series 
  as what he would use to teach Classical Greek. You need the Text & Vocabulary, the 
  Grammar & Exercises, and the Independent Study Guide (3 books - apparently a 2nd 
  edition came out in 2007). When I mentioned that I was now self-teaching with 
  Mastronarde's book (+ answer key book), he commented that it was perhaps the best of the 
  "traditional"-style grammars. So far Mastronarde seems to be going okay, but slowly, as I'm 
  also working full-time and teaching a Koine class with Croy's grammar for which I have to 
  develop answer keys. I tried JACT in the past, and it went well, too, for as long as I used it 
  before other commitments distracted me - it's more inductive in terms of lengthy reading 
  passages.
