Well it's official! Next Thursday (the 20th) at 10 am I will be sitting behind a computer taking my instrument written exam. In lay mans terms it's like taking the driver's license test. First you have to take the test with the questions, then you have to drive with an examiner, and then you pass or fail. The exam I will be taking next week is just the question part. I have to get 70% or better for passing and there are 60 questions.
In the near future I will take the 2nd part of the exam to get my instrument rating. This includes an oral exam (where the examiner asks you questions about all aspects: weather, procedures, rules, etc.). Pretty much the written test questions but being asked by a person so that you understand what you've learned and are not just memorizing answers. The oral test is combined with the practical where I actually go fly with examiner and do maneuvers, approach procedures, etc. If I pass all 3 parts I will get my instrument rating!Here is a brief overview of what the licenses/ tests are that I have to take just to make it clearer.
Anything that is a "rating" is tacked onto a license.
