For me it was a big jump from being a Cessna CFI. I got my flight hours over many years while working full time. Steam gauges and no autopilot.

I was really close to ready but messed up a couple of things and that was it. If I just could have had one more sim I’m confident I could have done it. I had a two week break over Christmas after sim 10 and don’t think that helped much either.

That was exactly what I messed up the single engine go around also sadly the two engine go around. I for some reason started to do a stall recovery is my best guess and raised the flaps too soon. And not enough rudder on the SE go around

I was thinking maybe getting a MEI might say I did something to make myself better if I can’t find a jet transition course. Last I flew a twin was two years ago

Really bummed out right now...
Have you applied somewhere else that flies the CRJ and let’s you pick your aircraft? I would view the training you received at GoJet as your Jet Transition Training and just go someplace else. Don’t wait 6 months for the skills to get rusty. If not 121, get some 135 experience.
