It took me about 60 hours for my multi-commercial, but about 40 of those hours were mandatory cross-countries in my 141 program, so I may not be a good measuring stick.

So what's giving you trouble? Is it particular maneuvers or knowledge? If you're having trouble getting things to "click," you may want to try doing a couple lessons with a different CFI--they may have a technique or style of explaining that simply makes more sense to you. It might also be nice to a get a second opinion, as it were.

Keep your head down and try to avoid feeling too frustrated. At 45 hours, my guess is that you're at a learning plateau and you just need a few final things to come together and then everything will suddenly seem simple.

What aircraft are you flying, by the way?
