Don't worry, i had around 45 hours when i went solo, but i felt that i could handle most of the things that could happen or go wrong.

I never understood how somebody with 8 hours total flying time that goes solo can be trained enough to deal with emergencys.
Don't fly in a Mooney - I did mine in a DIAMOND (!) Katana in just less than 10 hours.
