What do you mean "insight". You read the questions, you find the answers. Whats the issue?

If you have time then maybe learning the Aircrafts Limitations. Torq, ITT, Gear, Flap etc. If you hammer those out you should be good to go and ahead of the game when you show up in CLT.

Good Luck

They should've given you a thumbdrive with the manuals on it mainly poh and fom and the systems manual, use the search function on your computer and type in key words from the questions to jump to the right page that should have the answer on it. First day you arrive at the hotel for training get everyone together in one room and go over all the answers, some of the questions are horribly written just do your best and don't overstress about it noone ever really fails it as long as you all get together and go over the answers before class.

Yes.... Good info by Obvious... Work as a team. And if you have a few upgrades in your ground school get with them. Many are good guys and it can make for a much more pleasant ride. Have a good attitude and they will work to help you if you are weak in a few areas. And if the upgrades decide to help you study make sure you buy the 12 pack of beer.

Hey guy's first off, thanks for taking the time to respond, if the thumbdrive I got had poh and fom, systems info, I would not have to bother you guy's, but what was on it was not even close. I may have gotten the wrong thumbdrive. The first half of this thumbdrive had on it was the the first 9 chapters of the instrument pilot handbook. Also 24 simulator training video's, 3 different wx radar manuals, a 400 page manual on the fms. 260 page manual on the auto-pilot. Any info or advice. I was going to call jody in the morning. Again, any reply would be helpful.
