I took the ATP written at Lasergrade this morning. It cost $90. I got a 99%, but I should have gotten 100%. I went through it too fast, and I just put down the wrong answer on one of the questions that was in the Sheppard test bank. So, for $75 + $90, I used Sheppard and studied for about a day and a half and could have easily gotten 100%.
I will get about $40 back from Sheppard because one of the questions I got had different answers than the gouge on their software, and I told them of a test-bed question that I got. The correct answer was still easy to figure out since I had studied their gouge, but I'll take the money.
This is WAY easier than using a book, and they update their database as guys finish taking the tests finish and give them feedback, so the chances of you getting even one question wrong is pretty slim.
Still looking for gouge on military friendly ATP checkride places in California if anybody has any...
