Take the II while it is fresh in your mind. It is the same test.

Nicely done.
Only take the CFII written if you intend to go for the practical test within the next 24 calendar months.

Thanks! The one I missed was in J18. I think I just read the question too quickly. I'm going to try and get the CFI CFII this summer so I'll definitely take the test again when I have time later this week. Thanks for the advice!

Oh, and I took it in Battle Creek.

It's not hard if you study. There are alot of questions in the test bank so you still need to have a good understanding of everything as opposed to just memorizing all of the answers.

Yea make sure you have a good understanding so that when sometime down the road you have a runway in the center of a page.... and a bunch of half circles with a # in them pointing in different directions.... you will be able to find out the RB. Ahhh FAA writtens, the most useless information you will ever waste your time studying!

I found the GLEIM to be great, i used a copy from 3 years ago, and got 100% .... understanding the questions is the key... and maybe i was "slightly" advantaged, b/c i've been teaching IFR in Canada for a couple years

I used the Jepp Test Prep book for the instrument written and thought it was pretty good. It does get very annoying, though, when you have to reference 3 or 4 different figures for one question and they are all scattered throughout the book!

I used the Jepp book at first and then started to use the free online practice tests and study tools on Sportys website.
