It didn't take me too long to get where I'm at. It just takes a lot of will power, because the gleim has 900 questions to study for a 60 question test. You just have to keep pushing through the material. I will usually review what I studied from the beginning of the book, and then pick up where I left off completing two more chapters, and then repeat the next time I open the book again. I find it great to keep with it because the longer you put it off, the longer you will spend having to re-learn the material.
I bought the CPC DVD's through my flight school. I'm sure you can get something similiar from sporty's, etc. The videos are good, and very informative.
I really don't have any other recs for additional books to study. All I have been using is the Gleim and the DVD's. I've heard the instrument/comm book is good. Keep reading that, and really read the Gleim and study it as well. When you have questions, make sure you note them, and ask your instructor.
Good luck with everything, and if you need any help with some material, let me know. I as well as lots of others here can lend some advice.
