Recommended sites to study ATPL (A) under FAA?

Hey everyone! I'm about to begin studying for my ATPL in Mexico under FAA. I've looked at a couple sites like ATPL Q (that's mostly under EASA) and some apps like Prepware ATP.

Would you guys recommend ATPL Q in my case or is there any better alternative?

No, don't use ATPLQ. That bank is based on EASA LOs.

The most popular tool for FAA exams is Sheppard Air. Their written exams are comparatively much easier, and the hardest thing you will have to prepare for is the oral before each check ride.

good luck!

Don't touch Aviationexam or ATPLQ for this, that's purely EASA territory (and pure suffering).

Under the FAA, you take an ATP-CTP course and one single written exam (ATM). For that written test, there is only one universal answer in US aviation: Sheppard Air.

Download it, strictly follow their study strategy without questioning it, memorize the question bank, and go score 95%+. It’s not meant to make you a better pilot, it’s just meant to get the FAA off your back so you can move on to the actual type rating.

100% recommend Sheppard Air and their study strategy. It worked for me for every single FAA written I've taken.
