with commando it can be done quite fast, if you have the time, you can do a branch in 2 days, but theese will be long days with several buffs. so get the time and it can be done in under 2 weeks
1 branch in 2 days??
When I was doing my grind I was getting 300-400k fs xp a session, so 3-4 buff sessions and I filled a tree. I suppose it all boils down to his template and available time. If you are commando chucking nades at things work off a conservative estimate of 300 fs xp per buff session. That works out at just over 4 buff sessions per branch, and 20 more buff sessions should just about bank you all the xp you need.
All you gotta do is find the spare 60 hours from somewhere (with an estimated 16 days between now and CU you should easily do it with2 buffs per day).
Max xp cap for any regular weapon = 900000 XP
Force XP granted from weapon xp cap = 900000/30 = 30000 Force XP
Combat xp gained with the 900k weapons xp = 90000 XP
(combat xp cap is significantly higher)
FS XP granted from 90k combat xp = 90000/3 = 30000 Force XP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total Force XP for one weapon xp cap = 60000 Force XP
Total Force XP to obtain one novice FS box = 50000 Force XP
Total Force XP to fill up one FS Tree = 1225000 Force XP
Min. XP for 6 trees (2 novice boxes) = 1225000*6 = 7350000+100000 = 7450000 Force XP
Max. XP for 6 trees (4 novice boxes) = 1225000*6 = 7350000+200000 = 7550000 Force XP
Lets say you are able to get your xp capped for one weapon during one buff cycle, this includes 900k weaspons xp, plus the 90k combat xp(granted most people can do more than this in 3-3.5 hours, but i'm counting travel time, and musician buff time as well).....
Min. Force XP / Total Force XP (from above)
-----------------------------------------------------------
7450000/60000 = 124.166 * 2 to 3 hours = 248.332 to 372.498 hours
Max. Force XP / Total Force XP (from above)
-----------------------------------------------------------
7550000/60000 = 125.833 * 2-3 hours = 251.666 to 377.499 hours
Based on the information above, in terms of the time it would take to get Jedi Initiate from the time you enter the village, it would take you anywhere from 248-377 hours or approximatly 14 to 16 days of nonstop playing time.
So to answer your question, the expansion/CU comes out in 16 days (assuming it's released on time). If you played constantly for 14-16 days and were able to find a doc and entertainer to buff you every few hours as well as go without sleep....yea, you could do it.

I did 5 branches in 2 weeks no grenades, no dueling rez. So it is highly possible.
How did you do that? Doesn't seem possible. You've must of played about 10 hours a day?
Not questioning your skill, its just that I want to do the same.
