I came from instructing so checkrides usually meant me doing everything traditionally. As far as exams, indoc is open book and everything else is closed. You'll be fine as long as you study and the instructors will point out the areas that you really need to know.

Years ago when I went through initial, and every time I've changed equipment sim partners were chosen by bidding. Experience etc had nothing to do with it. They have a number of sim schedules and you go bid based on seniority.
