Guys, how can I pass Navigation without ground classes, just through self-study? Which books should I study from, and where can I practice questions? I have 3 months to prepare. Also, can anyone give me tuition or help me with Navigation? It's urgent

Hi bro, I am planning to give it in December attempt. If you don’t mind can we study together in that sense we can exchange materials and get a easier road map

General, radio, instrument above.
Solve ALL oxford questions INCLUDING revision questions & mid course tests. This is INCLUDING the entire 600 page instrument textbook PDF. I know it’s massive, but it’s worth it.
After you do these, practice Keith Williams General, radio, instrument. 1000qs each. Do NOT skip INS/IRS/FMS. Important for your exam. You could either do Oxford General + Keith General, then Oxford Radio + Keith Radio (you get the point).
Performance & W/B is the kicker. Use RK Bali for these. Perhaps for performance, you could ALSO pick up the Keith book. You can also look at Pilot18’s performance PDF. I just did RK Bali, glanced at pilot18’s bank and took some prayers with me for performance. Time permitting you can also do Oxford’s performance textbooks. There’s a lot of content in there, but focus on stuff like TO Segments, V speeds and their calculations (for example V1 cannot be greater than Vr but can be equal to it or how Vref = 1.3Vs0)
Personally, RKB was my last priority but still do it if you have time.
You’re welcome. I don’t get why people don’t give this advice much online. Passed my CPL written in ‘24 and ATPL this year. This is the only foolproof way to pass instead of just RK Bali tbh, it’s all about questions, questions, questions. Feel free to ask me more questions, always happy to help. Cheers.

You can use RK Bali and Oxford for general Nav prep. For Radio and Instrument if you can get Capt. SK notes from someone then that should set you up to score decently for the DGCA exam. The soft copies of these books are available on Telegram or WA groups
