Test Preparation

I decided to get with an instructor on 12/20 to get some last minute pointers before the checkride. All we did for an entire hour was pattern work using different configurations. I learned a bunch but still was apprehensive about the checkride. Many students plead with there instructors to sign them off for the checkride even when the instructor knows they aren't ready. I felt like the opposite. My instructors seemed to think that I was ready but I still had my doubts.

On the day before my scheduled checkride, I spent two hours solo flying the traffic pattern. 12 takeoffs and landings in various configurations in order to prepare for the test. I was still very nervous about the next day.
