See also this thread which discusses the various Q&A books! I've not used the Jeremy Pratt one and I don't rate the Confuser over Q&A for Private Pilots Licence.

Not sure exactly how far i can go with regards to exact examples without getting in the s**t, but i will try.
One of the q's was asking about what comprises "Air Traffic". Now two of the four answers were identical apart from one extra word, (both answers would be feasable, but only one correct!). The other two you can pretty much disregard through study/common sense.
Another example was what to do if you saw another A/C in distress. One of the answers had what i had learned from the pratt book in it (i.e keep the a/c in sight), but was accompanied with something like "Until you are no longer needed", This i assumed to be nonsense as another answer was to make a mayday call on their behalf, i considered this to be a much more sensible thing to do and therefore selected it. I may well have got it wrong, who knows.
I will also say there are some gifts also, make the most of them, easy facts....ages,signs,VFR minima etc. There are a few different exams so obviously you may not encounter the one that i did.
Learn the subject and you will be ok, hope that has shed some light....

Bought the Thom books at approx £13 a book from Amazon (New) not the £20 abook from other suppliers.
Also using the PPL confuser.
Managed to pass Air Law, Human Performance & Limitations, Flight performance and planning and Aircraft general in 7 weeks.
4 down - 3 to go.
Works for me
Good luck
