Passed my CMEL checkride
Today was my commercial multi check ride. I already done the oral last week, but had to cancel due to the weather/gusts. Flight plan was from KFDK (Fredrick, MD) - KLNS (Lancaster, PA). We took off from FDK toward LNS in a PA-44 Piper Seminole, flew over my first check point. We did the maneuvers there, and did a full feather shutdown over FDK. Did a go-around, then a simulated single engine landing. Time to start working on commercial single.

Congratulations. I really enjoy the twin, but the SE CAX maneuvers are actually more fun. Chandelles, lazy eights, eights on pylons, steep spirals, power off 180s... I just got back from doing those with a guy adding his single to his CAX ME ticket. Good luck, and congrats.

Congrats!
I just started working on my commercial single. Is there a reason you did your multi first? I thought about doing the multi first but was told that it would cost more in the end and that starting in the 172rg would make for a better transition.

I did my multi first because it's been a while since I flew single engine planes, and I wanted to take advantage of "fresh" experience.
