I am comfortable with my multi training from UND prior to getting to ATP, but if I didn't have a very solid base, I would not have done very well. You must do everything beyond the checkride on your own.
Whats wrong with doing everything beyond the checkride on your own? Ever been in college? Teacher BSs and you are responsible for learning from the book / lecture (if they desire to give one...)...I learned more on my own at the library then asked for clearification in class on problems / topics.
The FAA requires you to be trained to a certain level of knowledge / practical application. ATP does exactly that. ATP does exactly what they promise for the price quoted.
Why should aviation be any different? In the rest of the world , you are responsible for your education to the level you feel comfortable.
If the FAA had issue with ATP they wouldn't be in business.
