Created using official WGU Quizlet as base. C172 after the revamp. Many questions based on PA questions. Feel free to duplicate the class + add your own. **NOTE:** I have not covered every subject in these flashcards simply because I had some previous knowledge. These cards are a starting point and not meant to be complete. Please duplicate the class and add your own cards if you find you need a more indepth study.
