Best way is to read the books provided cover to cover and memorise every single piece of information therein! failing that, Bristol groundschoool is a dream!
HAHAHA
and if it is impossible too remember all info that is in the books???

I found the brush-up course helped enormously (not Bristol); precised down into the important stuff, the useful mnemonics - instruments in a nutshell!! It's not that bad!!

Sat this in the IAA March set of exams for 2nd time (only got 64 last time, durr).
Every single question I had seen before after doing the Bristol and Italian question banks. Every single one, bar one, which was about TCAS telling you to climb faster, but an obvious one.
Found this amazing. Worrying, but amazing.
but is it realictic too pass the INs and HPL only useing the Q bank...
i have read the books but especially INS ins pretty tough...
any comments....

Try to learn it from the book, but look or ask online for explanations to anything you don't understand. The Bristol brush up course was good for filling in any gaps.
In addition, hope you have good luck with the questions on the day because you can't possibly know it all. Ask most airline pilots to explain gyros and they'll go green. You have to grasp the concepts and know the detail in the exams, then you'll readily forget the detail as your brain steadily decays!
IMHO, of course...;)
