Congrats for your licence.
Since we got a fresh first hand experience, would you mind telling us in details (week by week) what the training consisted in?

Sure, in the 1st week wx theory, non-graphic weather. Week 2 graphic weather+ AIM/Jeppesen, week 3 regulations+ aircraft data, week 4-5 performance, flt. planning, MEL/CDL. The first two weeks are more easygoing, the stuff flow increase in the 3rd week rapidly.In total there are 6-7 different tests on all chapters through the whole time, you'll doing the reviews before each test and at least around 10 manually calculated and graphed flight plans. FPL is a big and important part, because it also tested on your practial with FAA. I scored in average on all tests at around 92% and walked through the practical. Of course i wasn't sure at all before the friday on 5th week when you get your sign off from the instructor, and the practial, but afterwards i can say, it's definitely doable!
