It's been a few years since I did it, but the FAA instructor's handbook was a good study tool. Don't read the whole thing, only the first seven chapters. A couple of mates have done it recently and mentioned not much has changed.

A free copy can be downloaded at Aviation Instructor's Handbook

The exact style of question escapes me, I'm sure someone has done it recently.

Despite it being a poor learning strategy, rote learning is the best way to remember the definitions, tables etc. In my opinion the exam was a waste of time and money.

If it takes you more than 10 minutes, and if you get less than 90, something is wrong with you.

As posted, waste of time and money.

I sat it about 10 days ago.

PM me for practice Questions. They were very much on the money when I sat the exam.

1. source a copy of a program called Gleim and rote learn the 183 principles of instructing questions(easier then it sounds)
2.Briefly read the FAA handbook, rote learn the taxonomy pyramids 100%.
3.Do the practice questions

as posted, took less then 10mins, 90%+ and $150 to CASA and ASL.
