No due to the fact I had 30 hours previously and my local flight school shutdown and things came up which allowed me not to finish my private. So I go to the school and they basically started me all over. When the school year ended in April I decided to finish at home and I went home to a newer school and finished in a week. The Examiner I had was VERY shock how I was flying and the knowledge I had. But I was mad at myself because it seemed like my first flight instructor dragged everything out at Riddle.
Just sharing my experience so far.
If Im not mistaken unless you come in with a certificate in hand, all 141 schools affiliated with a degree program make you go through the whole course again. The way it was explained to me was its like a class I never finished so how could I be expected to get credit for it. So I just breezed through the Private Pilot course and got my certificate and moved on. I believe I learned alot more in doing so.
