The attitude of ones instructor makes a difference. I soloed in 40 ish hours but my instructor wanted to make sure my autorotations were OK and I'd done a couple of engine off landings. However, after that I completed the PPL in a relatively short time of about another 25 hours.

It's no real indication of your progress!

Cheers
