Gleim Online Ground School (OGS)

Did anybody hear anything about the Gleim OGS? I'm planning on finishing up my PPL; I have 10 hours logged, and I want to get the written out of the way first. I'm trying to get a good amount of reviews before I purchase it. I had the Jeppesen FliteSchool PPL package, but I found it difficult when asked to measure stuff on my monitor. Also if not Gleim's OGS, can some people recommend the best method for self taught ground school?

I don't know anything about Gleim, except for the test prep software which I used. I would recommend the King schools ground school. They are done by John and Martha King and are very, very informative. The format is them teaching from a green screen like the weather man on the news. They have some pretty lame jokes, but they have a way to explain things simply so that you would understand. Used it for my Instrument, and Commercial and having had a problem. Good Luck

My advice is to use the red Gleim test prep book to get the written knocked out, so you can then focus on actually learning the stuff without the pressure of the exam. Some people learn better when under that pressure, I don't.
