There's a CTP class Sept 10th and a CRJ class Sept 19th. What are the odds of getting the ATP written done before class if I take the class on the 10th?

It is doable , there is a testing center right across the street from flight safety . Couple guys in my ctp class had a day to get the written done before class .

I hope it's doable, those are the classes I'm in. Anyone else here in that boat with me?

The CTP course is really laid back, you show up and take it in, and then go to your hotel and study sheppard air. I took the written 3 days after CTP on a Friday and then started ground school the Monday after that. It's a little optimistic to get in that September 19 class with the September 10 CTP because CTP is 4 days of class and 3 days of sim. the problem is they only have 5 sims and usually 30 to a class, so some do sims the day after the ground and others had 3 days off before starting sims, so if you were scheduled with the days off you wouldn't be able to get in the September 19 ground school. My reccomendation is get in the CTP before September 10. Oh and do yourself a favor and pick up sheppard air now and begin the studying.

Bryan you would have to email whatever recruiter you've been in contact with to make sure your CTP sim is right after CTP ground. Cornerstone Aviation is right by the comfort inn and flight safety. You have to schedule the ATP written through cats if you want to take it there. I was one of the unfortunate in our class. I had 3 days off between CTP ground and CTP sim. I've been in SLC since the 11th. Email your recruiter, if you can blaze right through CTP without days off between them you could do the written before class. Not enough time to go home though, so pack for 6 weeks.

Issue is that my recruiter seems to think it would be tight to do the CTP that close before class but my buddy has a different recruiter that's telling him there would be no issue. Not sure who to believe. Worst case scenario I don't get the written done and take the October CRJ class instead and have a small vacation.

Any tips on ground school ? I Here at other places it's easier to get through Indoc systems etc due to them having open book exams and stuff like that .
