I totally understand wanting to know if you'll be in AQP or traditional training, but don't let it sway you too much one way or another. I did AQP, and I have good friends who did traditional. We all passed. We all had a jeopardy event at the end. We all had the opportunity to repeat lessons, to some extent, if it had been necessary to prepare us for the final jeopardy event.

Yes, AQP is a somewhat less-stressful method of training because the stress is spread-out, rather than all in one final checkride. But, at the end of the day, you'll get through it if you work hard.

Again, fair questions, but don't let it override all other considerations (like base, QOL, etc.).
