IFR is a lot of content but very fun. I was lucky to do the Multi flight lab concurrently with my Multi rating, but if you can't, then it might be pretty boring.

pretty good IFR prep, the content itself is not as hard as CPL, however there is a lot. a lot of the wording will mess you up but use RTFQ^2 method, its not terrible

The new material on instrument is not that difficult, but the fact that there's so much of it trips people up. Take detailed notes as the power points are not particularly helpful
