Not sure how you managed to do 3 cross countys and an additional xc qualifier. I thought the qualifier had to be af at least 150nm and had to accumulate at least 5 hours cross country time solo.

It took me around 3 hours just to do the qualifier, taking into account you had to land at 2 airfields other than your homefield and get it signed off. I doubt you could do this in any less than 2 hours, assuming you were flying an average trainer aircraft, that bumbles along at around 80-90knotts.

That means you have somehow managed to do 3 other "xc" in around 2 hours.

Are you sure you added your times up correctly?

I'm surprised your FTO never went through your log book before booking your flight test.

Im sure your flight test can be counted as P1, Mine did. (maybe 1 of the instructors can comment)
