Its hard to say what to concentrate on. But the best adivce from my own experience in the exams is study the past questions. If there are areas you don't understand, read them again.. .. .Sorry can't be more direct than that. .. .Wobbers

have u tried the ppl confuser?
it's invaluable....has loads of past questions....
i used it for my ppl exams. it gives all the explanations to the answers and it's dead handy...

Sorry if this sounds all to obvious or youve done this before...:rolleyes:
but for each topic, make a table/chart. It simplifies large amounts of text. I managed to put 10pages of Separation on one A4 sheet! SIMPLE diags can also help, but be weary of over doing it.
I found it easier to picture these simpler tables/charts/diags in an exam.:D
Best of luck!

If you can get hold of the Oxford feedback, it's all you need...

Make sure you know seperation inside out...

I will second the oxford feedback as well. They gave us the best idea of what to expect and also a good basis for where to direct your study. Seperations were also heavily covered in the exam i took. But hearing of other exams this was not the case.
Anyway good luck and be prepared for some daft questions.

I third the oxford feedback & the bit about separation - really all you need.

Do you know anyone who might have it? When you sitting the exam??

Stormer - is that USA & PPSC stormer???

Okay,I`m fresh from the USA where I just got my ppl,here is what was in my exam.

1)Know all about special vfr,what information given etc etc,where its given,why..just know it okay!!!
2)Runway markings/lighting.
3)Class of airspace..know it!!!
4)MATZ penetratrion.
5)LARS,MARS,radar services etc.
6)Ground / air overtaking

I think it was paper 2 I did...

Best of luck,you`ll be fine as long as you read the questions.
My number 1 tip,as soon as you get the paper,put your damn pen/pencil/crayon..whatever..DOWN!!and read the paper,you`ll find around 20% of the questions have been partially answered in other questions.
