Understand that they want you to pass just as much as you do, so if you put in the effort required and can avoid looking like a deer in the headlights in the sim you should do fine.
What's nice about AQP is that it breaks up what would normally be a single Checkride into multiple events, so you're not being tested on everything all at once, but more of a progression type system that culminates in the LOE at the end. This is where you're tested on whether or not you can safely fly a typical line flight with a few abnormal procedures thrown at you; one leg as PF and one as PM.
Put in the effort and you should do fine.

I guess the fate of the rest of the UA 700s has been answered. 30 more will be transitioned over to the American side.
