simple , written test (1) . FAA medical , Practical Test similar to a tough IR (varies a bit depending on type of A/C and examiner ) if you do it on a generic airplane or Type rating test if you do it on A/C requiring a TR (above 12,5t...) . You could do the flying test without prep but I recommend at least one training flight to know what to look for .
and for the comedian earlier : stop thinking JAA licences=good pilot .It's just a tough exam process , not a guarantee of flying skills which anyway will depend on individual abilities .And they are meant for AVERAGE guys , not astronauts .
