I was just looking into buying them, How are they? And also i see some sort of certificate with it, does that count as your groundschool? Like if you finish the CD-ROM's or something does it count as your groundschool?

I haven't viewed all of them yet but the ones I've viewed are pretty good. I don't have anything to compare them to though. There are a lot of video and graphic explanations relating to most, if not all, of the subjects covered in ground school. I don't believe the package counts as having completed ground school but I believe it will give you a great foundation towards meeting the ground school learning/terminal objectives.

There pretty good I've watched them. You cant just watch them though and go take the test, atleast thats my oppinion. I've got through alll the videos, and Im now working through the ASA ppl manual.

Those videos are my Chekride preps... i just watch them over and over for like 2 weeks before the checkride, helping myself a little bit with the jepp books... I could say that 80% of my knowledge for my PPL checkride came from those videos... the other 20% by reading... as a result I passed and the examiner was very satisfied with what I did... at least that's what he made me think... Its a great tool specially if you look at them over and over... It makes you be very well prepared for the checkride...
