Default Quick Question

I will be attending ATP's CFI program in August and I have been reading about the program a bit. I know that they send you the program pre-test along with the seminole packet when you sign up for a class date, but my question is do they also send you any CFI books or supplements? I'm curious because I was wanting to get a headstart on studying and not overwhelm myself by studying 2 weeks prior to my class date. Thanks much.

He's too much of a slacker to do anything at BBCC

the only books that are included with atps total instructor program are the seminole supplement and a the "cfi pretest" worksheet.

you should already have books such as the FAR/AIM, PHAK and airplane flying handbook so you will probably only need to buy the aviation instructors handbook and all 3 cfi PTS...or just download 'em from the faa website for free

So they don't send out the "big ol' box of books" to Total CFI students any more? Or was that only for ACPP students? Their latest brochure still mentions a "Flight Instructor Packet" in additional to the Seminole Supplement and Pre-Test.
