The following are my last 6 of 7 tourney stats from the low level tournie's at pokerstars.
It may be a small sample, but have a new found confidence at this level as I can't seem to have this kind of success at the micro level tournie's.
I find my reads easier and more accurate at the low level as compared to the micro level, sure the donks are there but not as many as you would find at the micro level(I find anyway).

Based on above numbers, I think I have done well at the low level and think I will frequent this level more often.
I also have a couple problems that I need to fix:
1 - Stealing blinds
2 - Playing position properly
These two are my biggest leaks I need serious help on if I want to make the FT more often and hope someone reading this can help me out.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post as it took quite some time to compose.
