There was (probably still is) a requirement for a sign off by a ground instructor with a minimum number of course hours, so I figured what the heck, and took a weekend seminar from Aviation Seminars for that requirement. I felt the course was very valuable not only for the test, but for remembering procedures and regs years down the road. Getting information from multiple sources seems to really help the gray matter remember things (ie: reading it and having someone explain it). I scored a 96 two days later, but I don't have any illusions about doing as well today.
