This review is from: Private Pilot Test Prep 2007: Study and Prepare for the Recreational and Private Airplane, Helicopter, Gyroplane, Glider, Balloon, Airship, Powered ... FAA Knowledge Exams (Test Prep series) (Paperback)

I used this book along with the free online questions at Sportys when preparing for my Private Pilot written exam. This book does an excellent and very efficient job at summarizing all you need to know to answer the questions and then providing the questions/answers grouped by topic - with occasional explanation. I scored a 98 - needlessly got one question wrong. This book really helped me prep and I used ASA to sign me off for the exam.

Note - this book is not a substitute for learning and understanding all the information required to safely fly. It is efficient memorization and focus on the test questions. You really need and want to understand everything behind the questions/answers.

I just passed the checkride this past week. Again, this book helped in reviewing fro the oral portion of the exam.
