Agreed. Thats what I used for my Commercial test. That and the PTS guide.

To the original poster: If you bust your balls on studying for your license' you can knock out any written test very quickly. After high school I went straight into flight school. I did my Private in 3 weeks, Instrument in 2 months (took time to learn everything thuroughly with instrument), and my Commercial in just over 1 month. The next month after that I got my ass kicked by the American Flyers Flight Instructor school but well worth it. 5-6 months from knowing very little about flying to now teaching peoplel like you to fly!
