Your Complete Checklist for a PPL Pass & to Avoid Fails PilotPracticeExams.com

Over the past 10 years I've personally come across

thousands of student pilots who failed CASA pilot
exams, with many wanting to give up on their dreams
of being a pilot. This gave me a huge opportunity to
measure, analyze, and test the effectiveness of
different study & memory strategies at scale.

This checklist gives you an easy way to remember the

10 most important things to do before you sit your
PPL exam.

Kieran Braddish - I studied primarily from another theory provider

for over 2 months. Got to be honest, i learned more in the 6 hours
of PPE than I did with  the last 2 months.
