My checkride is on Saturday, and I have a few tabs made for the FAR/AIM book, I was wondering if anyone had a list of things to tab out for the exam. Thanks

You should have a pretty good idea of the kinds of questions you're going to be asked (i.e. speed limits, cloud clearance requirements, requirements to fly in certain airspace - this kind of stuff is standard stuff you'll most likely see).
Here's my recommendation. There's an index in the front of the FAR/AIM so it will be fairly easy to find answers to the really basic questions. Others are not so obvious. For example, suppose the examiner asks you what a taxi clearance entails (i.e. what runways you can cross, etc). You won't find that information by looking in the index so it's really helpful to write something like "taxi clearances" in the index next to 91.129 (the subsection where this info is located).
Essentially you're expanding your index and making it more user-friendly. I think that would be a better use of time than tabbing subjects that are relatively easy to find.
Of course the only way to do this is to just read through Part 91, find the little "nuggets" and mark up your index and that takes a lot of time. Since you have less than a week you'll have a lot of reading to do.
I also highlighted the really obvious ones so they jump right out at me (91.117, 91.119, 91.125, 91.129 - 91.135, 91.151, 91.155, 91.157, 91.207, 91.211, 91.213, 91.405, 91.409, 91.411, 91.413, 91.417; For IFR: 91.171, 91.175, 91.183). That should be a good start.
Good luck!

I've seen people tab the !@$# out of their FAR/AIM... I don't have a single one... You get too dependant on the tabs and you don't know the content, but if you REALLY know the book, you won't need or want the tabs.
How'd your ride go, BTW? Which one was it?

The ASA published version has a list inside the front cover of things you need to know for each certificate/rating. I just go through and highlight the stuff I need to know from that list.

There are so many things to learn and invariably, wherever you put a tab a question will not be asked on that subject..
