PPL Knowledge Test

Hey all, looking for a little last second advice. New to flying and I'm taking my FAA Knowledge exam for my PPL on Monday. Been studying for a few weeks and I'm done w all my flying requirements (outside of my check ride, obviously). I was wandering if anyone here has recently taken the exam this year and could give me some insight into what study portions I should focus on more than others. I'm doing the practice exams and scoring decently, just looking to smooth out the edges. Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, FAA written exam questions are still pulled randomly from the appropriate test bank.

So, keep working on the practice exams and you should be fine.

FAA written

Some tools work better than others. As an instructor, I recommend that you go through your entire test bank of questions, rather than repeatedly testing yourself.

I pad $49 for the Gliem PPL practice test and used that to get. 93. Should have been a higher score but I changed my answer on 2 questions at the last minute which was dumb

Go ahead and purchase sheppard air and cram for a few days before the written. You'll be good to go!

ASA Prepware worked for me. Lightweight, low cost, and easy. This assumes you have an iPad

Sheppard air doesn't offer for PPL though.

I used the Test Prep book and this website https://courses2.sportys.com/training/course/testprep

I took the test last August. If you can answer almost everything on the website, as well as Prepware if you have access to it, you're most likely getting 90% ++++

Good luck !
