6X, which DPE did you fly with? Can you elaborate more about the instruction and checkride?
Perhaps the number of flights isn't a reasonable question.
Bill, I'm sure you are aware that there are quite an abundance of egotistical CFIG's in soaring who want to teach you "their way" before a sign off. This is not doing soaring any favors and is the reason myself and many others choose to go to an operation who will help them earn their rating.

I had an excellent experience with obtaining an add on rating with Soaring NV: instruction, equipment, access. They use a structured approach following the flight training manual published by their chief instructor Russell Holtz. http://www.gliderbooks.com/author.html
