I am curios as to why there is such a difference in ATPL theory requirements in ICAO countries?
In the States it took me just one day to do the FAA ATP theory – including study and exam! I got 86% - with no prior study for more than two years!

If I want to do the JAA ATPL, I must sit 14 exams and participate in hundreds of hours of classroom lectures and spend thousands of dollars.
Why is the standard so embarrassingly shabby in the States and so overly difficult in Europe?
I did the FAA exam through:
