Throughout my career, the tough part was sorting the good stuff from the cr@p It would be good idea to ask your instructor.
Your instructor would probably be the last person to ask if you want technical facts. Sad to say but most wouldn't have a clue especially a newly graduated one who would only parrot what his instructor told him a few weeks earlier. Best read the manufacturer's POH. If there is nothing in there about pumping the brakes you can bet it is not needed. And if you don't believe me about the dearth of knowledge of some flying instructors, just ask them what is the POH recommended go around procedure and see if he can tell you word for word. You will be unpleasantly surprised at how little of the manufacturer's POH some of these characters know.
