What exactly is it measured from?

It is the distance measured from the 50ft obstacle to the point where the aircraft comes to a stop.

Commercial was the easiest checkride I've done yet, well... the Multi addon was the easiest, but both were a breeze. Know your systems well and youll do fine, the rest is just glorified private knowledge...
