Yep, the check ride just shows where the course needs to be pitched. Some low hour pilots have already got into bad habits. Ask yourself can you carry out a good PFL, full flap or performance landing and have you got a disciplined attitude to flight. Either way you can be trained but it is wise to know just what material you have to work with. You will be surprised when you do the course on the basis that you previously thought you could fly well enough. There really is so much to be learned - it's a great course and unlike most courses this one is ALL relevant to your chosen career! Good luck.
