Relax. It's really a non-event as long as you know your memory items and limitations and weather.
Day 1 is non-jeopardy, so don't worry if you mess up a maneuver.
Day 2 is just a standard oral and a LOFT with a system failure or two en route. Maybe a flaps failure on missed approach off of a GPS approach. Maybe a hydraulic system failure en route. Maybe a double pack failure. Those are 3 scenarios I've heard of recently. I had the double pack failure in mine a few months ago. If you do get that one, when doing the "Unpressurized flight" procedure in the QRH, wait until you are at 10,000 ft. before opening the RAM air door, otherwise you just open yourself up to a whole other headache.
