The study materials and video presentations were well done in an understandable and pleasant format. The practice exams were invaluable to me. I did 15 of them. I passed the exam with a 98 thanks to the program and some effort on my part.

Reasons for buying:

It was recommended to me by a friend who already had their 107.

When I first started taking your course I thought there is no way I'm passing the test. I'm 71 years old & even though I am tech savvy this seemed way beyond my grasp. However, after completing the course & reviewing my weak areas several times I began to feel a little more confident. I ended up with an 87 on the actual test last week. Thank you!

I enjoyed the curriculum. Some of the modules were more difficult than others. Which airspace you were flying in was challenging. I took two weeks Monday thru Friday for studying and taking practice test and scored a 93. Setting up a test was easy and quick.

I'm very glad I found this School! Just an amazing support and amazing breakdown on every topic that you will need to learn to pass your FAA exam. The videos are very helpful and very informative. Mike always helped me out when I felt a little lost on a certain module or topic. I emailed him a lot and called him often; he was never bothered he was always glad to help me and breakdown the information properly. The practice quiz and weekly zoom meetings is what makes this company apart from the others. They just don't give you videos to watch and take little quizzes to pass but they have a full support team (Not Ai) human to human interaction ready for anyone that wants a little more help on a certain topic. If you're considering taking the FAA exam, sign up with Drone Pilot Ground School!! They will make sure you pass on the first try (I passed on my first try) I'm very satisfied with the experience of this school. Worth every penny!!

The course was set up well and easy to follow. The information was clear and concise. The resources provided where amazing. this course is everything you need. Access to multiple practices test was a huge help. The practice tests were exactly like the real exam. They provided explanations for the answers you got wrong allowing you to learn directly from that experience.

The courses were good and the lessons were well explained. The practice exams were helpful, but I found that the real exam was more difficult. Even still, I passed with an 83%.

Also, I couldn't get the course videos to work on Firefox.

Reasons for buying:

My boss did the research and bought this course for me.

I had a great overall experience. I appreciate the flow of the course and found the practice test to be very helpful.

I would find it helpful to have a zip file to download all lectures at once instead of 1 by 1 as well as a separate zip file to download all resources other than lectures instead of individually in each course.

Reasons for buying:

Video and text lectures as well as practice tests. Overall I had a great experience.

Company Response

Sam, it's great to hear you had a positive experience with our course and we were able to help you earn your certification.  We appreciate your feedback about having a consolidated file to download all of the lectures and we look into creating a consolidated resource moving forward.  Thank you for choosing Drone Pilot Ground School and please consider us to be an ongoing drone industry resource as you begin flying under Part 107.

I found this course to be extremely helpful in getting me to pass the test. I was very impressed with the lecture format, the visuals, and the ability to reach out if I had any specific questions.

If you really follow the flow of the lectures, take the practice quizzes at the end of each lesson, and the practice tests at the end of the course, then you can focus on areas where you need some extra time. This was my strategy and I took the test and got a 93% on my first attempt.

Great job to all at Drone Pilot School for a job well done!

Customer Service

Lectures were great. Good timing, the right amount of content, super clear. Even better was the Q&A with Mike (either email responses or the Zoom calls). Scored high and I fully attribute to Drone Pilot Ground School!

Reasons for buying:

At first I thought I would do my own study using free resources because I heard from others that's how they went about taking the 107. I quickly realized it was way too much unneeded info and it would be worth finding someone to filter all the information into what mattered for me. I looked around and DPGS's free content was very clear and easy to understand, which made me feel the organized study would be excellent as well. In hind sight it was the perfect decision.

Company Response

Ken, congrats on passing your test and earning your certification!  It's great to hear you found value in our program and had a positive experience with our course.  Thank you for choosing Drone Pilot Ground School and please consider us to be an ongoing drone industry resource as you begin flying commercial operations.

I aced the FAA Part 107 test. No way I could have done that without this course. It really teaches you what you need to know to pass that test. The unlimited 60 question practice test were the key to passing for me. Once I got to the testing center and took the test, I was already comfortable with the format and type of questions.

Reasons for buying:

The head of the Drone Program for the company work for (A large multi-national company) recommended this course.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?

Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.

Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.

As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:

Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.

Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.

So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
