Grab your study/sim partner and go visit the “paper tiger” cockpit mockup and “chair fly” the various scenarios as much as possible in your free time. You must not give up here! You need to learn how to “think ahead” , make the required callouts, appropriate automation managment and ultimately be able to think at least 8 miles per minute to stay ahead of the jet. Not easy, but YOU CAN DO IT with practice and support from your class (team) mates.
