ATPL'S BREAKDOWN

+VE R8 · Post by **+VE R8** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 3:12 pm

Hey Folks,

Planning on getting these bad boys done this week, starting with the Saron. Was on the TC website to get an idea of which topics were on what exam...AND THAT DIDN'T HELP AT ALL.

Just want to know what I need to concentrate my studies to. I do understand that the bulk of the SAMRA is MET, but find some grey areas for some of the other topics and the exam in which they are tested.

If anyone cares to shed some light it would be greatly appreciated as it is frustrating not knowing how to divide my time/studying.

Thanks

just buy the areocourse book. hammer it until you can get 90's on each test. go in and write soon after and you'll pass no problems.

Just wrote mine 2 weeks ago. I used the C u l h a n e books. I used the groundschool book and the online course combined. They worked alright. Definetly couldn't have passed without them. I would HIGHLY recommend some sort of test prep book. They aren't cheap, but neither is having to retake a test!

Actually, I wrote the IATRA right before the 2 ATPL tests. I saw alot of the same questions repeated from the IATRA in the ATPL tests.

Study lots! There are alot of tricky questions in there. Probably the hardest tests I've ever taken in my life!

Good luck!

Once you get your material together, book a date for the first exam. Theres nothing in the world that can get you studting faster then staring at the looming date on the calender!

GOOD LUCK
