Cool

Congratulations Kash. I know you must be exhausted, I am!

To clear up on the re-training issue. It is at examiners discretion. They can mandate training, recommend training or neither. Check the bottom of your skills test report form.
The CFI at any school can also add to this of course at their discretion.
It really depends on the individual circumstances.

In yor case Nav wasn't too much of a problem during your training, and extra training wasn't really necessary.

Well done, now get back to drilling that oil to fuel our aircraft!

Pointers wise; don't waste your hour building by choosing the cheapest option where your not getting any pointers or structure. Saving $10 an hour is offset straight away when you end up repeating mutiple lessons at CPL lev which is expensive, because you only flew long navs city to city just racking up the hours! Doing the hour building where you intend to train also helps. If your hour building is done properly the CPL should be a breeze. In reality he majority of students complete "time wasting" and then suffer later during CPL and IR training.
