Leaving for school in January any advice on what f.a.r rules and sections I should be studying before i go :dunno:
 
Study the respective GLIEM, ASA Oral exam guide, and PTS. The FAR/AIM you will use mainly for reference only. Start with the GLIEM as it will cover everything on your written test.

Also, always have a PHAK and Aeroplane Flying Handbook handy. Both are published on the FAA website.

Pretty much everything in part 61 you'll need to know for a CFI ride, so while I wouldn't memorize it, I would read it frequently. AC-61-65E, AC-61-67C, AC-90-66A, in addition to what intern_mike pointed out above should cover you pretty well. Everything Explained for the Professional Pilot covers some 121/135 stuff, probably the only one I would buy - the rest are free PDF's

Just to clarify - the original request was for someone planning on attending dispatch school, not pilot school. I would recommend studying the Gleim manual for the FAA written, and studying weather/meteorology (both charts and terminology...if you can read a TAF and METAR when school starts, you'll be ahead of the game.)

Didn't notice that -oops! Please ignore then.

:yeahthat:
I spent the three weeks before class studying regulations and it put me way ahead. I got to sleep a lot more than my fellow students because of that head start. And, as Manniax suggested, anything you can learn about aviation weather (METARs and TAFs) will give you a head start.
 
i can read metars/taf/fa no problem and i just finished the gleim atp book so i think im off to a good start thanks everone
