According to the FAA's ATP test guide:

"(W)e do not publish all test questions. ... Our intent in not publishing every question in the airman test bank is to respond to the public demand for proper evaluation of prospective airmen. It is our duty to respond to these issues and provide valid and reliable tests to make certain that qualified applicants meet the FAA airman knowledge testing standards."

I would've thought that they'd be available as a matter of public record, but I don't know how Gleim, etc. get them in this case.

I took the All-ATP route in Jacksonville earlier this year. Went in cold, no prior studying. Sat in a box all day scrolling through questions, then took the test after around 8 hours and scored in the high 90's. Believe me, it's an EXTREMELY painful day. But it's only one day. Good luck!

Ditto! Easiest route IMO.

Same here, through the Dallas All ATP though. Did the FEx written the next day also. Both days were extremely painful but I couldn't study at home. I originally went through Sheppard Air's home software, but couldn't devote enough time to studying.

I used www.sheppardair.com. I spent the recommended 15 hours studying for the test. There wasn't a single question on the test that wasn't in the question bank from Sheppard Air. I plan on using them for the FE written too.

HuronIP...just finished my FE written last week using the Sheppard Air prep. Again there wasn't a single question on the test that wasn't verbatim out of their question bank. You'll be glad the FE test bank drops down to 395 (from about 700 on the ATP).

I've done both the FEX / ATP written and overall I would say Sheppard is a little more pricey than Dauntless, and not as pretty a software presentation, but a 99% and 98% later I would recommend them to anyone.

Happy studying and Merry Christmas,
MayFly

I used the Gliem and then took the test at ATP. Hammered out a 99% so I would say that worked for me.

I flew ALL night, drove from the airport to ATP at the GA field, spent ten hours (and a lot of coffee) in front of the computer and got a 96%. Yes, it was painful but the first time I took it was during the post 9/11 slowdown when I had three weeks to devote to Gliem...which got me a 92%. Yeah, I'd recomend ATP.
