For what it is worth from an old IFR Instructor, you have been taught T scan which is normal for the basic IF sequences and the more advanced scans for advanced IF.These are correct for the stage you were at then.
Be aware that you can get so much information elswhere (good though it may be) that you become slower to teach because you lose your faith in the teaching you are getting. In other words you are overloading an already 100% IFR workload with unnessary doubts.
