For those of you who self studied... What did you use?

You have two separate objectives. To pass the test, any FAA test, I'd
use the relevent Gleim book. Some people prefer interactive software,
etc, but the book works best for me. Just make as many passes over it
as you need to get all the questions. Make sure you understand the
answers.

To know what you actually need to know, any book will do. The
Machado book has a higher humor content but that makes it a longer
read to cover the same material. I've read several different books,
which give different perspective and repetition of the material.
Others will have their preferences. I think Bob Gardner who posts
here has one (I've several of his books, including "Say Again, Please"
which I've given to Lonny to teach her some of the radio work).

You will also need to read the regs (FARs), and the Aeronautical
Information Manual (AIM).

Since I don't have a photographic memory, I try to read some text
and/or the FAR/AIM once a year.
