I have a class date in a couple of weeks at Mesa. For those that have been through it, how do you judge their ground school / sim with others? I have heard they have a pretty large failure rate but that may be just rumors. I appreciate all the posts on preps..Sounds like 121 refresher, instrument refresher and general advanced systems review. Any other suggestions?

Mesa implied all the suggested hotels have shuttle service to the training facility. Is the set up reasonable enough to not need a car and just fly in/out.

Thanks in advance for all the help and advice.
