Thanks for all the comments! I went for a flight in the Tecnam on Friday, it seems like a nice aircraft (although several things were not working). I am not entirely sure that I like the school that much though, it seems slightly less professional than the other one. So I think I might try the Cherokee too and see how that is.

On a side note, if I complete some exams with one school, then change to a different school would I have to redo those exams? Or can they be transferred over?

Flying such a light airframe with low inertia and sensitive controls requires good piloting technique. I found that certain things which you can do in a 172 and get away with it simply will not cut the mustard in the Tecnam P2008. That does not mean it is harder to fly. The systems are far newer and simpler than a 172/Pa28's so there is less management required. So you can devote more effort into flying the plane. That cannot be a bad thing.
