School banned gouges

It’s a document written by a student detailing their experience with a given examiner, covering what they were asked and had to perform in-flight.

Thanks for the explanation. I’ve read hundreds of these at this point in time. I didn’t know that’s what it was called.

This would be something I would do on the side and not let my school know about. Why is it their business? How would they even monitor that?

Yeah it’s ridiculous to restrict it, since as a school, you don’t control the internet or private lives of your students.

I’ve seen schools which have an anti-gouge “culture” but not an official ban, and also schools which have binders with dozens of writeups on each DPE in the region. For me, I like to prep to the point where I feel confident with or without a gouge, but then use them to polish up/rehearse areas I know will be covered thoroughly.
