My PPL checkride was like follows(if I can remember):

starts off like a leg of a x/c
Soft-field t/o landing, short field t/o landing
unusal attitudes
steep turns
all ground refrence
both types of stalls
cross wind t/o landing
slow flight
engine failure (did mine while doing s turns)
aircraft speeds

Basic airmenship stuff. Hold headings, hold altitudes, look both ways before turning, remember to lean the mixture, time your x/c points. know how to call fss on ground or in the air(we had an RCO on the field) when to lower flaps. know how to conduct clearing turns, how to enter stalls (two differnt ways for them. rememebr power off is an approach to landing stall. power on is a t/o stall)
Its not too hard just remember the DE is just up for a ride.
