You're going to sit in class and go through FM1, then be sent home to learn systems on your own. You'd better put effort into learning them because when you get into class, the instructors aren't going to hold your hand to get you through. When you get to the sim, you're going to be dealing with PSI's (professional sim instructors), and they are not the instructors of old. Many of them have never flown the airplane and are fumbling with some of the techniques.



So in the end, you need to put in the time and effort. Just because it is AQP doesn't mean that it's a walk in the park. Spend time downstairs at the hotel studying flows on the trainers, and use your lunches to go to the computer lab and learn the FMS. It is all on you to pass the training.
