Pros: The practice sessions look and operate are exactly like the real test.
Cons: None that I saw
Review:
I used this software for the last stage of my preparation for my Private Pilot Knowledge Test. It helped me focus on topics that needed more attention. I also used the companion Gleim prep book, but I found that I was able to put in more hours of concentration using the software than using the book alone. Ultimate result: a 98. The one question I missed was in the software; it wasn't new to me. But I answered the question correctly the first time around, while using the software, so it didn't show up again. And then, when I took the real test, I over-analyzed the question and answered it incorrectly, instead of answering it correctly as my initial instinct would have had me answer it.

A necessity for anyone taking the PPL exam

Pros: easy to use and many varieties of ways to test yourself.
Cons:
Review:
Gleim's software is flexible and delivers every promise it makes. Without a shadow of a doubt I would not have passed my test with such a high score had I not used the PPL test prep software diligently. What I found so helpful was the feature of being able to select not only the units to test yourself on, but the # of questions which to be tested. I liked studying cumulatively and this software enables you to select and customize your testing/study sessions nicely. A must buy for anyone who is taking this exam. I was hesitant to spend that money at first but I'm glad I did.

Review:
I purchased the Gleim Private Pilot Test Prep software for my daughter. At first she was skeptical, but in four days of her Christmas break from college, she used the software diligently and passed her written test with a score of 98. She also said that it was valuable preperation for her oral portion of the checkride. I'll use Gleim again!

Pros: Clear explanations, excellent appearance on the computer screen, the ability to create a new test from questions answered incorrectly.
Cons: I couldn't figure out how to use the maps.
Review:
This is actually the second time I've ordered the Test Prep hardward. 3 years ago I took the written, passed with a 98, flew for a little while and quit. Now I am back,and ready for the Checkride, but need to take the written test again. I can't think of a better way to study for the test, it's such a huge help.

Pros: Easy to work with, self - tayloring, straight forward!
Cons: The whole registering on-line bit/calling to make sure you own cd
Review:
It was everything I expected and more! You can customize your test or study guides, ie. just one chapter or a few or all chapters. I used the book in conjuction with this cd and it made the FAA test real easy, I scored an 95% on the first try. I will be purchasing more cd's for future ratings/certificates.

Pros: Contains every question in the FAA written exam.
Cons: Can only down load it twice.
Review:
The software was just what I expected from Gleim. It is a very handy tool. The downside; I can only down load it to two different computers. My first copy (~3 years ago) allowed for three down loads as I recall.
