FOI Written done

Yesterday I took the Fundamentals of Instruction (FOI) written test. It was not easy at all and at some point I thought I was going to fail it. I read the FAA Instructor's Handbook twice, did the IPAD lesson and listened to the ASA FOI course on my car every day while going to work.
Well thank God I passed with an 82%. I now only have one written test left, which is CFI and 4 more practical tests.
I'm back to flying on July 14 and will probably have my commercial single-engine add on checkride on tuesday 17th with Mr Fred Houston. I need to master all single engine commercial maneuvers and have a complete knowledge on the 172 systems.
I also signed up for CFI school and I start on July 24th, It will be two intense weeks of training and studying.
Wish me luck.

I'm excited and nervous for you! I'm really curious about your opinion on the ATP program, I'm about to start my IFR at SFS, and am wondering if it would be best to get it at ATP so I can get my commercial and multiengine also. I'm still on the limb right now about it.

Keep us updated on how everything is going. I wish you the very best luck! You will be just fine. ;-)

Thank you sir. Regarding ATP, I will tell you my opinion overall after I finish my program. I've had moments of excitement as well as moments of frustration.
How's your IFR training going at SFS?
