You can't get ahead of the sim if you have to think about what is happening next on the approach. But I think you already know that. So brush up in your scan and procedures and get in a sim with a cfii or something.
Good luck!
PilotandMech,
150% agree with all of this. Like you said yourself, there were guys getting through this kind of training with a lot less time then you have just a few months ago. As you prob already know time isnt all it takes but with your credentials I have no doubt you have the ability to be successful. Get instrument proficient and come on over. If you have any questions ask here or PM me if you dont want flamed.
