Generally solid preparation
I did not feel that the Instrument course provided the same comprehensive level of preparation provided by the PPL course. Everything that WAS presented was presented very well. I DID learn a great deal from the course, but my 97-100% scores on the practice exams translated to 90-93% level scores on actual instrument exams. This was due to the King course failing to emphasize some items and in some cases the King course either not covering the items at all or otherwise not providing any preparation for them. The King course IS definitely worth the money, in my opinion - translating to both good performance and deeper understanding, but I wish I had supplemented my test prep with other sources (besides the FAA primary material - which I read carefully).

Easy to Understand!!!
I really enjoyed this course in large part to the presentation of the material. The presentations made digesting the information easy and without the marathon viewing/listening that many others would require of you. This I believe helped me greatly in not only grasping quickly but also retaining everything that was covered.

FAA Questions changing
The Private Pilot I took in December 2019 was right on the content and the questions almost exact.  The instrument course FAA questions on the exam were quite a bit different not only in wording but also in content/context.  I still did well but several of the questions I was able to answer because I had done some other studying as well.  Still good, but seems to be older questions or FAA made major changes for 2020.

This course was amazing!
I am 58 years old and wanted a course that would give me a practical, systematic approach to learning my instrument ground school. I took this course along with the practice tests and test prep. And I passed the FAA written exam the first time.I would highly recommend it to anyone that wants to pass the test the first time.

2 for 2 with Kings
I passed my PPL few years ago, and my IRA officially today with a 88% on the first try!  Kings has great videos, tricks and tips, and the explanations were well delivered.  I will be buying the commercial course in a few months!Thanks again!

great school poor maps
the school portion is great and easy to follow. the charts provided are uploaded in a low quality.please upload better quality chart supplements as some are nearly impossible to read when doing the testing.

*****Great test prep course
After starting & stopping instrument study over several years from borrowed books I bought the King IFR Course and within 2 months of studying and taking the practice exams I passed the IFR written test with a 90%. Great way to get this done.

Extremely thorough
The information in this program is very thorough and prepared me well for the IRA exam. John and Martha are the best!

Fantasitc!
After trying once a few years ago on my own to study for the instrument exam, I gave up after slogging through the FAA books and free online exams. After taking this course over a month and a half, I was able to  consistently do well on practice exams and more importantly, learn the material. I took the test and got in the 90s. Will definitely take another King course.
