Different instructors?

OK, so I'm retraining having last had a valid licence in 1989, and I'm doing OK with the actual flying.

But satisfying various different instructors turns out to be non-trivial.

For example they each have their own versions of exactly what should be done on an EFATO (all of which sound perfectly sensible and plausible, BTW, and totally irrelevant as this particular training organisation looks after its aeroplanes properly and hasn't had an engine failure since 1930-something), not all of which agree exactly with what's printed in the club's checklist.

So, do I:

(a) learn and do what's in the club checklist, and tell each instructor who complains that that's what I'm doing

(b) learn and remember each instructor's preferences and fly that way when I'm with that instructor

(c) find out who's going to be the examiner for my skills test, ensure I fly with him, learn his preferred method, and tell all the other instructors to piss off?
