It did the job, I passed!
After training for almost 4 years on and off I turned to this app to help me study for my written. Well I must say it definitely did the job. I must've taken the practice test at least 30 times over the last week and a half (took me about 30 mins each time) and I saw my score gradually increase from 50's to an average of 88. Took the exam today and I passed with a 77%!
There are a few questions on the written that were not on my practice tests but most of them are verbatim. This app was definitely well worth it.Show lessELWTVR
Passed!
This is the only test prep I used while studying for my written and I just took the test today and passed with an 80%. I was getting 80%-90% on the practice exams before I took the real thing, and saw a majority of the same questions. Of course, there were some questions I hadn't seen before on it as well. But, if you study regularly and are passing the practice exams with a high score they should be no sweat. Do yourself a favor and buy this app if you're preparing for your written test! You won't regret it. Now... Onto my check ride! Good luck! 🛩Show lessHbacesjr
Most helpful tool used to pass written test
I had used other online sources for testing from places like Gliem but there soft ware was hard to use and inconvenient. I was recommended this from a friend and bought it, which for $10 I thought was very reasonable. The app has all the questions you will see on the test and many are word for word the same as what I saw. The best part is you can take many practice tests and find out what you missed, restudy and take them again. With the app on my iPhone it was a great way to burn time and prep for the test. I would definitely recommend the app and I will be getting the IFR version in a year or so when I go for my instrument rating.Show lessB-rad17
Great app
This is a great app for preparing for the FAA Private Pilot Knowledge Test. It's very convenient to use and nicely arranged.
I studied this in "chunks" and was well prepared for the test. I scored a 98% so I found this to be helpful and good value.
One tip is to buy the hard copy testing supplement, available with test prep books from various pilot stores. It is exactly what you will be given for the actual test and allows you to practice plotting courses, measuring distance etc. It's easier to use than the digital images on the app or on the computer screen during the actual test. A tip is you cannot mark on the supplement during the test. You will be given a transparency to lay on top and an erasable marker for the plots so it is good to practice in that manner.Show lessJA Student Pilot
Great for written test prep
Currently using app for written test prep. Great to have access to practice questions on both iPhone and iPad. App would benefit greatly with being able to mark questions and have the marked ones saved at all times. Currently, only able to mark questions and have them available during the test you are taking. Marks disappear when back at home screen. Having marked questions saved would allow students the ability to easily return to problem areas or weak points without having to track down those particular questions again.Show lessJPN MD
This app rocks! Worth the $
I'm a horrible studier and it took a lot for me to just sit down and study a book. So, I downloaded this app and it changed everything. I could review questions on the train, in line at a restaurant, or anywhere I wanted. Very clean and easy to use as well. And it also gives explanations to the questions, my favourite part. Worth every penny. I now have the Instrument Study Buddy to assist me on my next rating.Show lessCampion del mundo at kissing
Very Handy App
This app is very useful. It beats having to lug a book and supplement with you all over. There's something like 700+ questions to practice. I took the knowledge test yesterday and got a 97% first time. All the questions were in this app, no surprises. The knowledge test was a little heavy on the navigation questions (time en route, mag/compass heading). The only two questions I missed were due to my own mistakes. It would be nice to save some questions so you could focus on certain problem questions. Overall great app!Show lessCAtrumpet09
Helped me pass the test
I used this app almost exclusively for my studying and passed the test with 92% (you only need 70%). I got through about 500 of the questions through this app, and I would say only one or two of the questions on the actual test I hadn't seen before in the practice tests.
My only complaint and why I didn't give it 5 stars is that it would be nice if you could mark questions and save them across sessions. As it is anything you mark is only accessible during a given session, whereas there are some trickier questions I'd have preferred to save for review at anytime.Show lessLawrence Villella
Buggy
Could be very useful if it weren't for the blackout bug. When I view a figure or if my screen rotates the screen will go black and will not return unless I completely close the program (open the multi tasking menu and close out completely), thus negating all my my progress in the test or study session. Thankfully I have hard copies of all the test figures, but that defeats the purpose of a portable device for studying.
Outside of that issue I think the layout is good and the flashcard mode is a nice way to test your knowledge rather than your ability to remember the questions and their answers in a multiple choice format.
I would like to see interactive forms that (for example) allow you to draw lines on the maps and receive feedback on the angle and distance of that line in place of trying to use a plotter on your iPad screen.
Overall, Lots of potential, but currently not very useful.Show lessKilroy164
