I used the Jepp ground school kit, albeit from 1979, and had little
difficulty. No tapes, just reading the stuff. (I was an aeronautical
engineering student at the time, which helped.) I used the King tapes
for my IFR written and, though corny at times, thought they were fine.
I also used the Gliems computer-based test prep. Thought that was most
useful. I'm currently using the King Commercial tapes. (I chose tapes
over CD/DVD because we have a VCR in the basement in front of the
treadmill. Makes the exercising go much faster.)

Hello everyone...pretty simple question. I am interested in doing
self-study for my ground school. I feel like I would do better at my own
pace, and I have a lot of experience working with industry certifications at
home, so I don't think I will lose any quality training.

I have read about many different companies that sell self-study packages. I
have received paperwork from Sporty, King, and some other one's via email.
Does anyone have any comments on the different packages? Anyone want to
recommend one over the other, or are they all just about the same? Any
specific packages you would suggest, maybe comeplete with practice tests and
such?

Thanks from a new Student Pilot!
Anthony
